2 killed in Brentwood New York

Pretty much self explanatory: http://www.railpictures.net/viewphoto.p ... 220&nseq=0

Here is a news story on it, although I think they have the street identified wrong... Suffolk Ave runs parallel to the tracks. I believe the crossing involved would be Brentwood Rd, which is just next to the station in the pictures.

On a side note, check out how the lights are installed on both ped signals at that crossing.

Love the first comment "Hopefully there were no fatalities" dude there isn't anything left of the car, the only way to identify a body after that is dental records and DNA.
Looks like another case of that trains going to stop in the station, instead it's an express going 50-80MPH

I speak my mind, if you don't like that oh well. I'll have you fill out a hurt feelings report and submit that to my office.
