The train won... no surprise there. This happened Saturday the 18th near Elkhart IN. You can skip the first 20 seconds or so...



Here is the crossing where it happened: https://www.google.com/maps/@41.522448, ... !1e1?hl=en

Was a pretty nice signal with 8 inch lights that gotten taken out. Would assume it has been there for many years. :Sad:

ugh @ the driver being clueless about how trains work... of course the engineer saw you you dumbass :Roll:

For what it's worth, that town needs to put up low ground clearance signs up, considering the tracks go up in elevation right there.

Pretty clueless on driving a vehicle that size as well it appears...

I agree, it wouldn't hurt for there to be a warning, but if you are a good driver you see that kind of stuff before getting yourself in trouble.
