@Diverging Clear posted:I'd see this sort of event, at least once a trip. I'd like to see the cab cam footage, I'd bet he (the idiot) disappeared from view of the cam seconds before they entered the crossing. And I'd bet in cab audio had similar expletive's before and after this event. I'm just relieved that the crew didn't have to experience what almost happened, and the dog is okay ... never mind about ATVin' over weight Indiana Jones.
I counted just over a second from the time the dog cleared the rail until locomotive passage. At what point do you go into emergency? Obviously emergency would be too late in this case but when do you make the decision?
Always learning from the ones who have actually done the job.
Thanks.
