I feel for the engineers......they just have to watch..........the people who "do" the action at the crossing??? I guess it's a final lesson. How big of a "hurry" are they really in?? It not only happens to trains.......cars, trucks, boats/ships.....people and their priorities get themselves...
Chappy,
I didn't have train tracks around when young. First real experience? Train ride to Florida for family funeral with my Mom. Not a lot of fun. Second? Rail-head at Ft. Hood............again, not much fun.
I appreciate ALL the stories................. no one EVER said adventure...
Wonder if it was a "company life" he about surrendered....
Train ALWAYS has precedence.......in those collisions, no one "wins"....
Great thread and constant safety reminder.....
Have a crossing several miles away, through the valley, can hear the horn and sound of the train. As another mentioned, "Train wins" and everyone loses. Can't imagine the lbs of kinetic energy let alone the sheer mass. Hmmmm
