Passenger train hits multiple cars and semi!

PO2 Russell "Russ" Lincoln The took the wrong route! My guess is the truck driver was lost. The railroad tracks are higher than the road which caused this accident.

I had some jerk intentionally block me on train tracks, with a train that wouldn't have time to stop. There was a semi behind me, so I couldn't back up. I blew the horn, and got the finger, so I put my Stepvan into low gear and pushed a brand new mid '0s ford pickup truck out of my way just in time. The SOB was stupid enough o get out of his truck and threaten me, that he was going to call the police. I told him to get back in his truck, and get it out of my way, or I would shove it into the intersection, in front of a steel truck. He had just attempted murder, and to possibly cause a derailment in our downtown area. This was on a main line from Michigan to Florida with train after train full of new cars and industrial equipment.

On youtube do a search of train hitting cars/trucks. They are all over youtube. This could have been avoided with common sense. You can see that the track is quite a bit higher than the road. As far as we know nobody was killed or suffered serious injury so that is good news.
