After 34 years as engineer for BNSF I can tell you there is never much left of vehicles when you hit them at 70 mph. I've seen semi trucks drug down the track and reduced to pieces that you could put in a wheelbarrow. Remember the train ALWAYS WINS. I've even seen law enforcement people run around gates. but schoolbuses doing that is what makes engineers lose years off their lives.

Yup, not an F450. That sucker was bigger than that...did anyone see the 26,000 lb GVWR on the rollback body? An F-550 tops out at 19,500 lbs.

Lesson to everyone for sure though, the trains will always win. Real lucky guy driving that truck though...
