In Mannhatan Kansas Union Pacific has a small yard across from the mall. A few years back a car aproached the the crossing near the end of the yard. The gates were down but there was room to make it around. They were in a hury so they decided to go around, but the train beet tham to it. They waited for the long line of autoracks to go by. They lined up to floor-it when the end of the train passed. The end was getting closser and closser. Finaly it was there, the driver hit the gas and ended 3 lives when a second hidden train hit at 45 mph. It pined the car into the crossing gate and completely demolished it and the car. <br />Now a new crossing is in that same spot and <font size="3"><u><b>NOBODY</b></u></font id="size3"> goes by now.
