Jacoria Plair, tells us when the train crashed into the tractor-trailer, it dragged it down the tracks and took out several nearby cars which hit the town library.
And as bad as it was, she says it could have been worse.
"The man just happened to be out of his truck to see why he was stuck on
the tracks when the train arm came down and warning lights started flashing and
he knew...
There was a fuel truck about to go around him in the road
and if the fuel truck wouldn't have backed up in time, he would have also been
hit but he backed up and I'm glad," she told us.
It was a close call for the driver of the 18 wheeler...and the driver of that fuel tanker! Imagine if it had been dragged down the tracks.
We will continue to follow this story and provide updates as they become available.
