And here's a video of another gate at that crossing being broken a few years ago:

Yeah, they should've stopped. (Tried to break through a crossing gate to beat a train)

(Yes i know this is unrelated but i found this pretty hilarious and thought i should post this here just as a little joke, this was when i was playing GTA last night.)

Ok, back to normal topic.

Truck is struck by a train, and smashes through the gates, Why leave it on the tracks? These crossing gates are designed to break easily if someone becomes trapped, if he was broken down/stuck yeah i understand that.


You will have to skip to the end though, due to lack of editing.

Also, here is a crossing where an impatient trucker decides to continue and not stop, let's just say the train gave him a slap for doing bad.


(Not sure why the engine doors are open)

Excellent videography there.

Yes, i just don't get the debate and sorts regarding filming widescreen or horizontal (however you call it)

Horizontal/landscape lets you see more of what's going on, plus it's the traditional orientation of videos (not to mention it just looks better, especially on computers). Dunno why they started recording in landscape, and then tried turning the phone to portrait mode while recording, however.

Look's like the car got dragged into the counterweights which made the gate lower and touch the road, though the train was going slow enough to not cause any serious damage.
