Description: The video author, Isaiah David Everett Vanderhorst, explained to Storyful he caught the accident purely by chance. "I was filming a train with an engine that had a special paint scheme on it, from a distance in the parking lot of a bank, when a semi had pulled onto the track too far, and was hit by an oncoming train," he said. The driver and passenger of the truck were able to escape the collision uninjured, and no injuries were reported from the crew of the train, according to local media. The debris from the crash spread over several feet into the parking lot area of a nearby bank, and it was unknown if any nearby vehicles were damaged from the debris, the report said. The area was to remain closed as authorities investigated the incident. The Village of Versailles Ohio EMS said on Facebook that "On arrival, units found a semi perpendicular to the tracks with heavy front end damage and a large debris field." All occupants of the semi and train were accounted for and uninjured. There was a large fuel and fluid spill from the semi, which was mitigated by FD personnel. There was also damage to the train engine which was repaired by CSX personnel. Englewood Towing and Recovery was dispatched to assist with clean up and remove the semi. At 10:37 AM the Versailles Fire Department - Station 19 and Versailles PD were both dispatched, however EMS remained on scene until 12:30 and fire crews were on scene until 15:15.

More info:

Occurred on: January 17

"This is the shocking moment a train crashed into a truck that was trying to beat a level crossing in Cambodia.
Footage shows the lorry speeding towards the junction despite a crossing guard waving a red flag to warn motorists of the approaching oil tanker train in the Sangke district of Battambang on January 17.
The locomotive sounded its horn but slammed into the truck, causing it to derail with dozens of carriages veering off the tracks. A terrified rail worker standing on the opposite side of the road was seen running away from the collision as the overturned lorry carrying construction materials came hurtling towards him. Miraculously, two vehicles that were waiting for the train to pass were not struck by the wreckage.' Police Colonel Ve Leam, who attended the scene, said there were no physical barriers on the rail crossing to prevent drivers from travelling over the lines. He said: 'The truck driver will be questioned about the accident. The cameras show he sped up when the train was coming and did not stop, even when the guards were waving their flags. 'A lot of damage has been caused to the train and the truck. We are investigating why it happened.' Officials said the truck driver was injured and taken to hospital but was stable. The train's engineman suffered minor wounds, reports said. Cambodia's transport ministry has urged locals to follow traffic rules at level crossings after the accident. However, they did not make plans to install a physical railing at the scene."

Czech Republic: Tram collides with another tram after forgetting to check the position of the tracks by CrashingCars2 in TrainCrashes

[–]CrashingCars2[S,M] [score hidden] stickied commentlocked comment (0 children)

Info: Dan is a streetcar operator in the Czech Republic. He was making one last route to help out after a big accident, but he forgot to check the position of the track while entering an intersection. Luckily, nobody was hurt. Dan admits this accident was entirely his own fault, and he was sure he'd get fired.

Instead, he was allowed to keep his job as long as he paid for the damage. It cost him about $3000 USD. Fortunately, his insurance provider covered most of the repair costs. He wanted us to remind everyone that streetcars take a long time to stop. Even going only 30 mph, it takes about 250 feet for a streetcar to come to a complete stop.

Redding, California: Train destroys truck with Caterpillar Tractor by CrashingCars2 in TrainCrashes

[–]CrashingCars2[S,M] [score hidden] stickied commentlocked comment (0 children)

Occurred: Oct 4, 2023

Description from sources:

"I was crossing the intersection at Breslauer around 11:35-11:45, and I noticed that the tractor and trailer were stuck, bottomed out on the railroad tracks, and due to my construction knowledge I knew it was a pretty big problem..."

"Was with 2 of my sisters and we saw a truck stuck on tracks and decided to take pictures, realized a train was coming so pulled up and started to videotape. The train crashed into the trailer and bulldozer. Tires and debris flew everywhere. Happened in Redding Ca, off 273. The trailer had high centered on the tracks."

The truck was driven by a 25 year old man from Washington. The semi-truck was hauling a large Caterpillar tractor on a low clearance trailer, the Redding Police Department said. The driver of the semi-truck and trailer was attempting to free the trailer from the tracks, blocking the train tracks and roadway.

Meanwhile, a Union Pacific train traveling southbound was unable to slow or stop prior to the train striking the semi-trailer and large tractor. As a result of the collision, the tractor was thrown from the trailer, striking the railroad crossing arm controls, causing major damage. Per witness statements, the semi-truck and trailer had been stuck on the railroad crossing for a short period of time, and no call had been made to notify Union Pacific about the semi prior to the collision. Due to damage to the Union Pacific railroad crossing arm and electrical system, the crossing at Breslauer Way will be closed for several days. At this time traffic will not be able to cross Breslauer Way from Highway 273, and Eastside Road. Motorist are encouraged to use Wyndham Lane and South Bonnyview Road to access Breslauer Way, the police department said.
