  • it didnt take as long as it should have to slow that train down usa=ually it takes like 3 to 4 minutes to slow a train down because of inertia.

  • @RockerDudeAbram2013

    very short consist - stopped pretty quickly.

  • The piece of equipment that got hit is known as a speedswing.

  • @oldstumpcutter

  • i would have been so pissed if i was that truck driver....

  • guy in truck:

    "oh come on dont stop here! FFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU"

  • the poor guy at the crossing must've been cursing like mad when the train stopped in front of him

  • @Bluestarcinema Well.....to some extent you are right. But if you take a piece of equipment weighing several tons there is always the chance that the locomotive may be lifted just enough to derail. (Or the locomotive drives the equipment into the track and spreads gauge. Derailments have been caused by collisions with much lighter equipment.

  • @scamtrack This is Canada not the US. No FRA. They did lock out the track but after releasing it they just made a stupid error and equipment obviously did not clear.

  • @imthepatton I'm not...

  • @defiant18 u mad

  • @imthepatton that loader weighs nothing compared to a unit. its like a truck crashing into a kids bike.

  • full speed ahead!!!

  • No blue flag? Why dident they lock out the track if they worken? FRA fine!
