    Were the landing legs down on the trailer? Looks like the tractor took the brunt of the hit.

      Or the guy riding tail-end Charlie in the caboose. Oh wait they don't have cabooses any more.

    From what I have read from other sources, the Train engineer gets fired anyway...Even though it wasn't his fault.

      Look closer. The landing gear on the trailer got caught on the rise of the road over the crossing. With it at an angle like that, the driver would have a hard time releasing the kingpin.

    Looks like his landing gear got caught on the tracks. He should of stopped when they started scraping.

      You do realize that you're talking about a truck driver, don't you?
      I've worked with a few of them that could have the ass end of their truck in flames and not notice until they got to where they were going.

    Isn't there a railroad number on the side of the boxes that you can call for problems with the lights? I'm pretty sure the phone jockey would have a number, or be able to connect to a higher up to warn all trains on that line that there is a blockage.

      Yup, Do that first, maybe the dispatcher can get the train stopped and you can remove the obstruction at your leisure.

    Even had they called immediately the engine still would taken out the truck. The inertia of the train was too great.
