    I don't think a truck ever won a game of chicken , even when the driver sees the train comming ...

    There seems to be a lot of this happening recently. The area seems to be wide open. Not sure how the train could have been unseen. They are certainly lucky! Hope the train crew was OK.

    The driver did not see the train coming? Those trains are easy to see if you just stop and look.

    I bet he had his cellphone in hand, texting, and that's why he didn't see the train. Somebody needs to check his phone records....

    Never ending story.... Everywhere and everywhere, always the same. Nobody can imagine that a 10000-ton train doesn't stop like a moped....

    I'm simply delighted when they stop where I want them to.
