not really
but something to look at
I'm impressed. I watched this about an hour before bed. Just had a nightmare that my truck was on that carrier and destroyed by the train. 😭

Poor guy was trying to get a train to stop. That train didn't even seem to flinch.

This old Top Gear segement is good train vs car crash. Jump to the 2:55 mark for the crash

I remember taking trains years ago, keeping my eyes off to the sides of the track looking for deer and moose that got launched into the fields after getting hit by trains. Not ever a good ending to mess with a train.

That was the Amtrak Heartland Flyer that runs between Fort Worth and Oklahoma City.

So freaking crazy, but it does take them a mile or so to stop.
Not when their they short... looks like only a few cars... not saying it could’ve stopped in time but depending on the track there’s every chance that they had enough sight distance to slow down safely and stop.
