Subject: Re: Hopper bottom + train = BAD wreck


Fruita CO
A similar wreck happened at Fruita CO several years back, except the train got the tractor dead center. There was a line of cars parked on one track, blocking the driver's view of the main track. He pulled across & a hiball freight got him just like this video, but took the tractor apart-the hood was about 100 ft. away, the engine & frame farther on, & the cab & sleeper still farther. The trailer just dropped right at the drossing, didn't touch it. The driver was sort of scattered throughout the whole mess. Not a pretty sight...
