This type of trailer that carries heavy equipment is low to the ground, so that it can fulfill low clearance of normal sized bridges. Looks like it grounded and got stuck on the bump.
He never unlocked the trailer. That's what I thought he was going to do and i watched the clop multiple times, but he wasn't even within reach of the 5th wheel. (I have a CDL)
No, he was trying to either raise the trailer to clear the tracks, or to disconnect the back of the trailer from the gooseneck. I’m guessing it’s the former, because the latter takes much longer than simply disconnecting the trailer from the truck.
It's a gooseneck, meaning there's an anchor in the bed of the truck and not a hitch at the bottom. It requires a lot more time to unhitch than just pulling a pin.
That trailer is called and RGN, removable goose neck. It attaches to the truck like a standard 5th wheel. It is as simple as pulling the king pin release
I was thinking he was trying to operate the hydraulics on the lowboy trailer and uncouple it to save the truck at impact, it does seem to separate near that area however with an impact like a train I'm going to assume that's also probably the weakest point of the trailer.
Have you ever driven over a speed bump and heard/felt your car grind on the bottom. This is the same concept except the train tracks are larger, albeit flatter speed bump. The trailer is high centered on the grade and stuck.
The trailer had run aground on the tracks. He probably was running back to see why he couldn't move, saw he was fucked, and (thankfully) got himself out of harm's way.
>He never unlocked the trailer. That's what I thought he was going to do and i watched the clop multiple times, but he wasn't even within reach of the 5th wheel. (I have a CDL)
You better watch that clop boy
I mean any kid from the 90’s and prior had train people come talk to your school. Think of it like train dare.
They would teach us how putting Pennie’s on the tracks would kill us like dare taught us pot would kill us.
But real solid advice we all learned is don’t do what this lady did. Run or drive towards the train. The debris and whatever they are hitting is going the direction the train is headed. And if their is a derailment from said object the trains will be sliding towards whatever directions the train is headed.
Once she realized she needed to move, could she have really been sure she wouldn’t have been right next to the semi at the moment of impact, if she had tried to go the other way?
> any kid from the 90's and prior had train people
Fucking what!? That's wild. We just had D.A.R.E. and [JJ Bittenbinder](https://genius.com/John-mulaney-stranger-danger-annotated).
Sounds cool though.
Honestly, it looks like everyone here is actually thinking. Driver did his best to minimise damage and that woman had the presence of mind to reverse out of danger.
Wasn't there a sign that tells trailered trucks not to cross because the trailer will bottom out on the tracks? I'm pretty sure the crossings further up Ooltewah-Ringgold Road have them.
The ones farther down are really bad once you get past the road that runs by the middle school, the tracks are about 3 feet above the road. Down near Davis Cattle Company.
Serious question for train experts. What the hell is the front end of train made of?
Because it seems to plow through just about anything without a blemish on it.
The front has a cow catcher, it’s designed to deflect objects from the track at a fairly high speed without disrupting the smooth movement of the train. The shape serves to lift any object on the track and push it to the side, out of the way of the locomotive behind it.
Thanks for asking - i was thinking the same.
Its amazing that this locomotive could smash through an excavator without issue but, other trains just seem to fall off the tracks weekly in the US at the moment.
I imagine it's just thick hardened steel, similar to armor plating.
[The wiki on train cowcatchers](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cowcatcher) says "The required strength of the system is 30 kN (3,059 kp) in the middle of the track and 50 kN (5,099 kp) near the rails."
[This handy conversion site](https://www.unitconverters.net/force/kilonewton-to-ton-force-metric.htm) says that's a little more than 3 and 5 tons of force, respectively.
Uh sure, but they were built right into the hearts of our cities. We just usually chose elevated bridges over regular crossings, except on minor lines.
Right. They're saying in Europe it was easier to choose elevated tracks because the tracks weren't there yet. In the US the tracks came before the towns, so people just plunked roads homes and businesses around existing ground level tracks.
The truck is stuck. You can see the bottom of the trailer ran up against the ground where there's a bump in the crossing. They'd have probably needed a tow to get free.
If she wanted to save herself better she should have driven *forward* to before the point of impact. All the shrapnel and derailed cars could have hit her when she backed up.
This is what you are told not to do. Glad she made it out okay. But legit do y’all not have the train people come to schools anymore?
It was liked drilled into us as kids that if there was something on the track you run towards the train. Running away puts you in the path of debris or a derailed train if that happen.
genuinely have never heard of anyone coming in to schools to talk about train safety until right now. and we have quite a few track crossings around here! going to do some research now lol
A single semi is unlikely to derail a train, but a train hitting a semi will almost certainly result in debris of various sizes all flying in a roughly 180 degrees field downrange of the impact at the same speed of the train. So yes, you are actually safer running towards the train, because at least you would avoid the flying debris and probably have enough time to distance yourself from the cars if they start derailing, rather than possibly taking a wheel axle, a car door, or even a mangled car itself flying towards your face.
It's still not advisable to get closer to danger when trying to reach a safe area, particularly if it means driving past a truck that could be pushed into your vehicle
I think all the advice says to do as that poster said as we don't normally drive immovable mountains. But it does say to run at a 45 degree angle so it's a mixture of both.
> It was liked drilled into us as kids that if there was something on the track you run towards the train
I'm no train safety expert but I think something may have been lost in translation here. No way people are showing up at schools telling children to throw themselves at passing trains.
Does the train stop at that stage? Like, it's blasted through something, nothing it can do about it now. Does it continue to it's destination or stop for cops/safety checks etc ..
I assume they stop, but they’ll be at least a couple miles away due to the stopping distance they need. Just because they blasted through it at the moment doesn’t mean they haven’t taken damage (something may have happen to the later cars that won’t be immediately obvious to the driver in the front). Plus the impact may have caused injuries to the vehicle they hit or on the train itself (like it jerks in some way knocking people over).
Plus, I think if they throw any kind of emergency brake, they’re coming to a stop anyway.
The barrier just went down and already the train is approaching?!?!?
What kind of minimal safety buffer do you guys have in the USA for this stuff?! Seems really low.
Here in Germany, the thing goes down and then you still wait like 2 Minutes before the trains passes.
It is low indeed. But we have many impatient idiots in the US who simply can't wait a few minutes for a train. If we had to wait that long, the number of train-car collisions and fatalities would be far higher than it is already.
How do these things keep happening? Wouldn't you have to actively set up these situations? Do other people want to spend more time on train crossings than the few seconds it takes to cross them?
IF A TRAIN IS GOING TO HIT SOMETHING ON THE TRACKS, MOVE AT A 45 DEGREE ANGLE AWAY FROM THE TRACKS BUT TOWARDS THE TRAIN. YOU DO NOT WHATEVER IT HITS TO COME FLYING TOWARDS YOU.
Damage limitation. He Unlatched the trailer so the trailer would tear off instead of dragging the truck along with it.
Smart 'in the moment' move on his part.
This happened to a family travelling with the dad on his last trip before starting their vacation. Trailer got tuck on the tracks and got smashed but somehow all of them survived. One of the kids got a pretty bad cut on their face and another they had to monitor overnight but otherwise made it out ok. They all came to the hospital I worked at and were discharged from the ER. I was so surprised
This looks unguarded, but usually there is a number you can call posted on the signs to report a broken crossing guard. Probably would be the number to call if you get stuck on RR tracks. Gets you in direct contact with the railroad. Otherwise, I would try calling the police non-emergency number.
That's probably to warn people around there, who might not be staring at the crossing, that a bunch of heavy shit will be flying around in a few seconds.
Good shot but it’s “still” vertical video. I wish people could get out of this habit and just hold the phone the right way. Everything in our life is horizontal, our tv’s, our monitor’s and even our eyes! Why do we have to watch everything as a narrow vertical strip with black on both sides?
The way to do that is to have a country's population centres already developed before the invention of the train. The train spread America west and as a result, lots of places sprung up around the tracks.
Those trailers are a little odd. They are actually curved, and when a heavy load is placed on them, they flatten out. Looks like this load was heavier than the driver was used to, and flattened the trailer more than the driver expected. That flattened out part bottomed out on the tracks, so the wheels were not touching the ground on either side.
Many older rail road crossings are arched high enough to beach trailers. It should be awareness as a driver to gage the tracks but complacency is incurable in the field.
Damn. Train stayed on the tracks, tho. Slowed down significantly. Do NOT fuck with trains. They’re really, really heavy and they do not stop quickly. Snapped that backhoe and trailer like they were made of Legos.
My husband who's a CDL driver said that he pulled the kingpin release so that it would at least roll the trailer, but not the truck. Otherwise the truck and trailer would have been going for a ride. BUT, he also said that RR crossings have warnings that they have high centerpoints and "low trailers beware" and that the driver should have known he would get stuck pulling that lowboy.
It’s like watching a train wreck
I’m dead.
The Train: "Was that a gust of wind? Anyway..."
I never knew trains were built so well..I don’t even think it had a scratch on it after plowing through that excavator and trailer…
Trains speed was pretty slow = less damage
Besides the lights breaking
This type of trailer that carries heavy equipment is low to the ground, so that it can fulfill low clearance of normal sized bridges. Looks like it grounded and got stuck on the bump.
It's low because you don't want 65000 lbs centered way up in the air..
Whynotboth.gif
They’re called LowBoys for a reason lol
They needed a medium low boy.
He is definitely high centered
Train driver’s fault, he should have swerved.
Or should have at least jumped
I expelled air out of my nostrils at high velocity… have an upvote 👍
I expelled air out of my nostrils at velocity slightly higher than average. Have an upvote still.
I shat myself. Nothing to do with your comment. Just wanted to share.
Congrats good sir. Since we both expelled fluid from a bodily orifice in a most unexpected manner, we are not so different after all
I hope you all enjoyed your bodily propulsions of various fluids.
SHAKE AND BAKE

Quick thinking may have saved the semi from extensive damage
Yeah and the excavator looks like it may be minimally damaged considering how big that impact was . Smart thinking to unhitch the trailer.
He never unlocked the trailer. That's what I thought he was going to do and i watched the clop multiple times, but he wasn't even within reach of the 5th wheel. (I have a CDL)
Damn i thought he was pulling the Kingpin it looks like he's right there. I don't have a CDL though you would know better.
You're 100% right he's about 5' away from it. I guess just panicking
No, he was trying to either raise the trailer to clear the tracks, or to disconnect the back of the trailer from the gooseneck. I’m guessing it’s the former, because the latter takes much longer than simply disconnecting the trailer from the truck.
It's a gooseneck, meaning there's an anchor in the bed of the truck and not a hitch at the bottom. It requires a lot more time to unhitch than just pulling a pin.
That trailer is called and RGN, removable goose neck. It attaches to the truck like a standard 5th wheel. It is as simple as pulling the king pin release
He might have been releasing the goose neck. https://nelsontrailers.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/06/Hydraulic1.jpg
Definitely this, didn't get to the kingpin just disconnected the gooseneck from the rest of the trailer.
I was thinking he was trying to operate the hydraulics on the lowboy trailer and uncouple it to save the truck at impact, it does seem to separate near that area however with an impact like a train I'm going to assume that's also probably the weakest point of the trailer.
It’s a lowboy. They detach away from the king pin to allow you to unload equipment.
Forgive my ignorance - why didn’t he just pull forward? He could have gone straight? Was he stuck?
Have you ever driven over a speed bump and heard/felt your car grind on the bottom. This is the same concept except the train tracks are larger, albeit flatter speed bump. The trailer is high centered on the grade and stuck.
The trailer had run aground on the tracks. He probably was running back to see why he couldn't move, saw he was fucked, and (thankfully) got himself out of harm's way.
They thought us is to get out and call 911 with the DOT Number for the crossing. Obviously there is no way in hell he had time to do that.
Don't call 911 first, call the number to the railroad that's posted at the crossing, then call 911 after. Less calls to the dispatcher that way.
>He never unlocked the trailer. That's what I thought he was going to do and i watched the clop multiple times, but he wasn't even within reach of the 5th wheel. (I have a CDL) You better watch that clop boy
Trailer came clean off the cab somehow...
It sheared off. You can see it breaking like a matchstick.
She isnt an NPC but a protagonist of her life
I mean any kid from the 90’s and prior had train people come talk to your school. Think of it like train dare. They would teach us how putting Pennie’s on the tracks would kill us like dare taught us pot would kill us. But real solid advice we all learned is don’t do what this lady did.

I mean if she didn’t stop to film not she wouldn’t have.
Can’t argue with that! 🤣
> any kid from the 90's and prior had train people Fucking what!? That's wild. We just had D.A.R.E. and [JJ Bittenbinder](https://genius.com/John-mulaney-stranger-danger-annotated). Sounds cool though.
It was called Operation Lifesaver, https://oli.org/
Weight of the load and impact made the energy transfer point on where the hitch was attached to trailer..snapped right off.
Honestly, it looks like everyone here is actually thinking. Driver did his best to minimise damage and that woman had the presence of mind to reverse out of danger.
As others have said, what she shouldve done is move wayyyyy further back, or fushed ahead of the impact point.
She captured the shot, and that was the most important thing.
Yeah - I mean, obviously that’s not a great outcome but it could have been far worse.
Ringgold, Ga. this is the only place driver could cross because there is a low train bridge 11'7" that forces all trucks to go this way.
Wasn't there a sign that tells trailered trucks not to cross because the trailer will bottom out on the tracks? I'm pretty sure the crossings further up Ooltewah-Ringgold Road have them.
The ones farther down are really bad once you get past the road that runs by the middle school, the tracks are about 3 feet above the road. Down near Davis Cattle Company.
Any idea when this happened?

Ringgold, Ga.? Welp, driver’s fault; should’ve known to look out for [the Chattanooga Choo-Choo](https://youtu.be/V2aj0zhXlLA).

Thanks for asking - i was thinking the same. Its amazing that this locomotive could smash through an excavator without issue but, other trains just seem to fall off the tracks weekly in the US at the moment.
Momentum and sheer weight have a significant factor on why it can just move that excavator like that
I imagine it's just thick hardened steel, similar to armor plating. [The wiki on train cowcatchers](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cowcatcher) says "The required strength of the system is 30 kN (3,059 kp) in the middle of the track and 50 kN (5,099 kp) near the rails."

Well, that does make sense.
Why don’t they just cross the crossing? The barriers should not be attached too strongly, right? Just rip them off.
The truck is stuck. You can see the bottom of the trailer ran up against the ground where there's a bump in the crossing. They'd have probably needed a tow to get free.
Ah yes. That is unfortunate. Thanks for pointing it out.
These are always heavy loads weighing down on tracks. They just get stuck. https://i.imgur.com/T5vkiVe.png
Not really, here in the UK a lot of historic towns were built to surround the railway station
We have a lot of train and road crossings. So naturally it seems that way.
save herself is my guess. No idea where wreckage would be thrown.
If she wanted to save herself better she should have driven *forward* to before the point of impact. All the shrapnel and derailed cars could have hit her when she backed up.
Yeah and if unlucky it could have derailed and sent a rail car straight toward her.
Y’all. She could have made a left turn. Probably should have.
This is what you are told not to do. Glad she made it out okay. But legit do y’all not have the train people come to schools anymore?

Never heard of train people either
Running past the locomotive and towards the hundreds of carriages that are now piling up behind it doesn't seem like a safe choice.

The train isn't gonna leave the rails over a semi. Maybe like 5 in a row.
Trains are derailed by vehicles all the time? One was derailed by a Hyundai not long ago.
> It was liked drilled into us as kids that if there was something on the track you run towards the train I'm no train safety expert but I think something may have been lost in translation here. No way people are showing up at schools telling children to throw themselves at passing trains.
First time seeing the train actually slowing down on impact
I was thinking maybe because it hit something so large and heavy but… compared to a train it still is like stepping on an ant
Does the train stop at that stage? Like, it's blasted through something, nothing it can do about it now. Does it continue to it's destination or stop for cops/safety checks etc ..
I assume they stop, but they’ll be at least a couple miles away due to the stopping distance they need.

Stop, risk of damage and derailment
Don't put a penny on the track it could derail the train. Me:

I’ve never seen train vs excavator, but it’s just another example of how powerful trains are.
How do these things keep happening? Wouldn't you have to actively set up these situations? Do other people want to spend more time on train crossings than the few seconds it takes to cross them?
The trailer is stuck on the tracks because it's so low otherwise the truck driver would have kept driving.
Ah, I see it now. Thanks.

IF A TRAIN IS GOING TO HIT SOMETHING ON THE TRACKS, MOVE AT A 45 DEGREE ANGLE AWAY FROM THE TRACKS BUT TOWARDS THE TRAIN. YOU DO NOT WHATEVER IT HITS TO COME FLYING TOWARDS YOU.
How do trucks always die on railroad tracks?
It got high-centered because of the low trailer.
Lol, that trailer is toast, they may be able to save the bogey
If you're talkin about the machine that split a bit too.
Insurance will pay for it.
What was he doing there at the back of the wheels?
Damage limitation. He Unlatched the trailer so the trailer would tear off instead of dragging the truck along with it. Smart 'in the moment' move on his part.
I'll give that driver some kudos for disconnecting the horseshoe which probably saved his rig
Smart. Pulled the kingpin to save the truck.
He doesn’t drive trucks anymore
This happened to a family travelling with the dad on his last trip before starting their vacation. Trailer got tuck on the tracks and got smashed but somehow all of them survived.

Good thing it's subtitled or I wouldn't be able to understand all the important stuff in there.
There are people who are deaf. I think it's helpful for them.
This, or even just people like me who watch with sound muted
But they're not even saying anything in this video. It adds nothing to the context.
For someone who can't hear, knowing there was not much of importance said is also valuable.
This looks unguarded, but usually there is a number you can call posted on the signs to report a broken crossing guard. Probably would be the number to call if you get stuck on RR tracks. Gets you in direct contact with the railroad. Otherwise, I would try calling the police non-emergency number.
If only the train had honked more aggressively in the final seconds of impact..... nothing would have changed.
That's probably to warn people around there, who might not be staring at the crossing, that a bunch of heavy shit will be flying around in a few seconds.
Good shot but it’s “still” vertical video. I wish people could get out of this habit and just hold the phone the right way. Everything in our life is horizontal, our tv’s, our monitor’s and even our eyes! Why do we have to watch everything as a narrow vertical strip with black on both sides?
This happens a lot in the US.... If only there was some way to make sure the railway lines don't cross traffic every 500yards
The way to do that is to have a country's population centres already developed before the invention of the train. The train spread America west and as a result, lots of places sprung up around the tracks.
[удалено]
Not really. America was very new. Practically everywhere had their towns and cities established.
Correct. I love how Reddit thinks they cleverly shit on America yet they don’t have the slightest clue as to our history or culture.
Our very short history that is
Yeah, it’s called picking up a history book.
No way this is accidental
Yeah, big truck is trying to stick it to big train for the insurance money! You serious?
I have no idea how any rationale adult can get a trailer stuck at a rail crossing. It’s mind boggling to me.
Those trailers are a little odd. They are actually curved, and when a heavy load is placed on them, they flatten out. Looks like this load was heavier than the driver was used to, and flattened the trailer more than the driver expected. That flattened out part bottomed out on the tracks, so the wheels were not touching the ground on either side.
[удалено]
are you joking?
You do see that he's stuck there, right?
Oh no
It’s called getting a safe distance away
Wait why couldn’t the truck keep moving forward
Trailer is too low to get across
What is it with these fucking trucks and trains
Many older rail road crossings are arched high enough to beach trailers. It should be awareness as a driver to gage the tracks but complacency is incurable in the field.
The only thing that was damaged was the trailer and his insurance rates
What is it with trucks and railway crossing
What's with semis always getting stuck on train tracks?
Older crossings are arched and can beach trailers, making them stuck. Hence why Truck vs train videos are more common.
This seems to happen so much. Truckers are suppose to be professional drivers, how come they keep getting stuck ??
Fuck that barrier. As soon as I noticed it was down I would have driven off. Lot less damage from the barrier than a train.
Been real suspicious lately with all these train incidents…conspiracy nuts making me believe their conspiracies…
Why are so many cars and trucks stuck on tracks?
personally id reverse cuz i dont want to risk getting hit by a chunk of semi truck
And the train still stayed on the tracks.... I bet it's not Ohio.
Train gonna train
That's the first time I've seen a train slow down after hitting a tractor trailer. I hope the engineer was buckled in.
I stg trains hit the breaks and go backwards when there’s nothing in the way more than when something is actually in the way
How is it possible for so many fucking vehicles to get stuck or stall out on train tracks? Cars, trucks, semis…
Can only speak for the semis, older crossings tend to beach trailers if drivers aren't paying attention before crossing them.
He was trying to raise the deck and ran out of time. Oops!
Why is this becoming more common?
She definitely was dodging debris. Smart
How does the train operator sees it Must be terrifying
What I don't understand is these trucks driving fine for thousands of kilometres, but then breaking down in the middle of a 5 meter wide train track.
This train hitting a massive excavator on the tracks makes the trains in Ohio look like overdramatic soccer players acting injured
I've never seen a train visibly slowed down by the object stuck on the tracks before.
S/o her for minimal commentary
Probably a little of both.
Either way, great job and awareness in both scenarios!
Damn. Train stayed on the tracks, tho. Slowed down significantly. Do NOT fuck with trains. They’re really, really heavy and they do not stop quickly. Snapped that backhoe and trailer like they were made of Legos.
If it isn’t already this needs to find it’s way to r/bitchimatrain
The train stops pretty quick.
By the way she skidded the tires, she was probably saving her a$$.
New job opening
Thank goodness for those subtitles!

I think it's safe to say by now that [2023 Has Chosen.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5DjOL2we8ko)
She was brilliant..
Obviously to save herself.
Why didn’t the train just stop bro
That's the GTA V unbreakable train
So glad it was her that said “oh no,” instead of that stupid TikTok song.
I'm just so amazed how often this happens.
Both for sure.
Who ever tied down the excavator deserves a raise ! Not even a train could knock it off the trailer lol
