Title:
Collision
Description:
According to a trooper’s report, a Burlington Northern Santa Fe train hauling 96 cars was traveling southbound on the railroad tracks at Kelly Road when a semi truck failed to yield and pulled in front of the train. The semi was pushed down the railroad tracks for approximately one-half mile. When the train came to a controlled stop, the diesel tanks on the truck ruptured, causing the tracks and truck to catch on fire. The BNSF conductor and engineer were able to exit the locomotive and locate the driver of the semi truck. They dragged him out of the wreckage and to safety before the entire truck was fully engulfed with flames, which also included the front of the locomotive. The driver of the semi, 71, was flown to the hospital in fair condition with several injuries. The conductor and engineer were not injured. According to the OHP report, the cause of the collision was due to “failure to yield.”
