@@stephaniejordan3676 just women in general. I don’t associate with any so can only generalise that women appear to be bad drivers. That’s what I see in my travels.
Like what are the odds of a vehicle stopping on a crossing with maybe a mechanical problem? Not knowing how long it was there, I wonder why could it not get pushed off the crossing by bystanders. All rhetorical questions Like why do people trapped between crossing gates, choose having their vehicle destroyed over breaking the crossing gate, by driving through it. Maybe I should cut back on the number of trains vs cars videos that I watch!
Nice shots. Hope no one was in the car! That crossing is notorious for stuff like that. Coincidentally 214 had trouble with a truck stuck on the tracks south of Macon that day
Wow, so glad she got out of the car, great catches, this looks like a great railfanning spot. Love when towns give us a spot to safely enjoy the hobby.
Well, a train can’t stop as fast as a car. It takes about a mile for a train to come to a complete stop, depending of the speed and the weight of the train.
Train doesn't exactly stop on a dime even when it goes into emergency at that speed sure looked like someone just want some one to buy a new car for them depending on the state they are in and it's rules
No cars in front of me I'm running the traffic light and going thru that crossing arm. I rather get a ticket and pay for damages to that arm than sit there and wait for a freight train to destroy my car and possibly my life.
It's amazing nowadays once they going to emergency braking how quick they can bring that thing to a stop. Years ago you throw into emergency braking it would take almost a half a mile to bring it to a complete stop at that speed especially on the old geeps and F units
3:55 Lucky catch! Woman could not put her car in Neutral and push her car forward out of foul? How long was her car stuck there? No one to helpusher car off the track? Glad that she walked where not hit by debris. How long did itake for police to arrive? Any updates about why her car was on the crossing?
Was that her walking away? Not even looking back at what was about to happen? And I didn’t see one person run over to check the car? Where are the hero’s in that town?!
They tried not to hit the car, but they were too close to stop. Also, they have to check for damages and the driver if they're OK. People should just get off the tracks and not try to beat the train. It's happened to all railroads, not just NS.
The Engineer hit the brakes before his train hits the car that stuck on a tracks! She tried to tell the truck driver to move her car before its too late! She realized that the train its getting closer and closer.. The Train hits the car and pushed off the track! The Car was suffered left front and back door damage. The Lead Locomotive NS #9822 suffered little damage
@@Major_Tom98 your telling me, IN PERSON with your own two eyes NOT A VIDEO you se a car hit a train? I know it’s common but i have a hard time believing it’s that common.
A Car running over a Soda Can is the same as A train hitting a Car. Also, when a train hits a vehicle, it will always be the vehicle that is at fault, for they weren't supposed to be on the railroad's right-of-way.
Why was the emergency brake activation so late from this incompetent crew? You can clearly hear the locomotives only start to throttle down when they are going past the camera. That means they didn’t start emergency brake action until after they had hit the car. The crew had such a clear view of the car when they went around the curve giving them plenty of time to start emergency braking before, but they wasted all that time wanting to hit the car before doing anything.
You obviously don't know a single thing about how trains operate. The train was thrown into Emergency before striking the car, it can take a Mile for a massive freight train like that to fully come to a stop. And the crew wasn't deliberately wanting to strike the car, they couldn't do anything but hit the breaks and then simply wait for the train itself to come to rest. Don't make ridiculous assumptions upon things you don't know about..
Trains are miles long with different weight in each car and add all together it's a lot even in full emergency the engineer and conductor can only wait till the train stops, the reason trains don't stop quickly is because of 3 factors weight, speed and amount of cars the train has the factor in the stopping distance
@@supermariotransitfan1662 Sorry if I hurt your huge train ego, but I was just shocked at how slowly the train decelerated if at all. There are plenty of other videos out there on heavy trains doing 50+ mph having an emergency brake application and coming to a stop much quicker than what is shown here. I was just expressing a concern I had about how late the emergency brake was applied and how little affect it had. Pardon me for blaming the train crew, that was premature.
Shouldn't have stopped on the tracks in the first place (normally there would be a "do not stop on tracks" sign there, but Google street view from March 2021 shows only a "do not block intersection" one). You don't proceed until you're sure there's room for you on the other side.
After reading all of these comments, I noticed that absolutely NOBODY READS the description. Everyone please read the stupid description before commenting.
I still can't figure out how so many vehicles get stuck on the tracks. At most the train is 10 ft. wide... enough to step out of the way in 2 steps . Now I understand when the road isn't built for low-boy trucks the crossing should be properly graded of immense signs.
@@cody8217 As an engineer, roadforeman, conductor, yardmaster, trainmaster etc I can tell you that much depends on his train, how long and what tonnage they had, what speed they were going, how long they had to make a decision, whether or not there was a DPU, what the rulebook says, what year it was, etc. As a conductor you know that a full reduction at certain speeds with certain train lengths and tonnage disposition can determine whether or not you do a full reduction or go into emergency. As a conductor you know that the train dynamics behind you can vary greatly and that an emergency application is not always the safest and wisest choice. I'll grant you I did not listen to what this engineer did so I'll bow to your knowledge here. And yes, whether or not big holing the train or full application was the right thing to do....yeah....there will be all sorts of management second guessing going on. Peace bro.
@@cdavid8139 How long ago has it been since you've been in the seat? You are correct in that tonnage, total brakes in the train, DPU, etc., are a factor. It's also a very real possibility that dumping it can lead to a derailment, but a full service application can do the same thing. But you also can factor in that dumping it from both ends via your EOT or DPU does help to distribute these forces more evenly than dumping it from the head end only. The beauty of this technology, especially distributed power is that it does just what it says. It distributes starting and stopping power more evenly. Does it suck that it's costing us jobs? Sure does. But it sure beats changing knuckles.
Once the emergency brakes are engaged you kinda just have to let it happen. Also need to check for any damage, maybe even police evaluation of the incident if applicable, brakes need to be reset/checked, etc.

Read the description. It said the truck in front of her stopped. She got out and told him to move and he didn't. She couldn't get back to her car in time to move it because the train was too close
Well, people need to use their head's a little bit here, asking a lot I know, but that car looked like it was pointing a little down hill, so, you should be able to roll forward, at least try it, save everybody a lot of trouble!
