<p>However, one must wonder why there is a double-track crossing in the middle of a city that does NOT have crossing protection. </p><p>I'm not saying gates would or would not have helped, as she seemed rather determined to not wait. What I am saying is that having a crossing like that, in a busy city, with trains that travel at a fairly good clip, is indeed inviting disaster.</p><p>What if that vehicle had got caught on the front of one of those locomotives, and was then force-wedged between the opposing lead locomotive...would it not be possible for the struck auto to perhaps nudge the first axle off the rails?</p>
