Train wreck in Gastonia NC. The truck was stuck in a pothole and couldn't get out. My sister filmed this from where she works.
She said "Holy Cow!" becuase she works with children (who were present) and so cannot say "Holy Shit!" at work.

  • And the person who is watching the kids walks up to the accident scene with the kids and puts everyone in danger because that could have became a hazardous materials scene depending on what the trailer contents were.

  • I live in Belmont, near Gastonia...the driver was not in the truck. I agree..these people are every callous...they look almost happy about it.

     I have encountered the strangest people since I moved down here..

  • That NS trains horn sounds like a crazy mofo on a jug penut

  • According to a google search:

    "Gastonia, NC -- April 21, 2006 A tractor-trailer trying to cross over a set of railroad tracks near the 200 block of Firestone Street has been struck by a freight train and split in half. No injuries were reported. Further details have not yet been released pending official investigation."

    Thank God no one was hurt! And that was a LOUD train horn, AND a loud crash when the truck got hit!

  • @Alphabex8 yep. kids or no kids, holy shit would've slip outta my mouth (dangerous goose muffins)

  • @Alphabex8 lol, read the description, you may understand why. :P

  • Gastonia, home of the faggots.

    Great video. In spite of all the Holy Cows, it shows how long it really takes for a train to stop.

  • Tak mądrzy mogą być tylko Amerykanie ...

  • Girl likes cows

  • @david1991rules4life there is no way that train was 20k tons, 20k tons are some of the biggest trains we run, the do take over a mile to stop and need more than two locomotives to run them, this one was probably a small switching move judging by the size of the engines, it still took him almost 600 feet to stop if not more

  • @molliebean welcome to north carolina! home of the strange lol i go to stowe park in belmont every sunday to watch trains.
