Rescue 911 - Train vs teens

[@geomodelrailroader]

A fully fueled Dash 9 pulling 150 cars takes 2 miles to stop. Some crossings don't have the equipment needed to alert you to an incoming train. Remember LOOK LISTEN LIVE!

[@johndavis3307]

That’s right train’s can’t stop on a dime yes it can take 2 miles to come to a full and complete stop

[@johndavis3307]

Believe me I know Are used to drive a train

[@Blank53689]

Cause The Cause Of The Accident Was Fog They Should Use Their Lights

[@coreyhill681]

Great point, and always slow down carefully when it's dark and foggy, never speed

[@LyricalXilence]

It didn't even look like they could tell there was train tracks there was too much fog.

[@joegaito702]

Way to go your service is deeply appreciated thanks take care best wishes to everyone on rescue 911 your show rocks keep up the work stay safe out there. Joe

[@ErikVince]

I think these railroads should have the proper equipment at each crossing crossing gates crossing lights and that would prevent accidents like this especially when it's a foggy night like it was here

[@HoboRoadrunner]

Problem is , especially these days , is money. Having to put them in , run wires etc . All cost money

[@selinaogorman8380]

Can’t imagine what they went through that night it was foggy cold and dangerous never go before a train the train is more powerful.

[@markelder7160]

A car weight around about 3,000 pounds a train can weight more than 15,000 tons.

[@animemangafan1987]

Always look, listen, and live on all crossings whether it had gates or not and never beat the train or ended up just like what the hell happened to those young teens. Also buckle your safety belt anytime you go anywhere

[@coreyhill681]

I made a similar comment but I definitely agree with you

[@coreyhill681]

That's why you never speed when it's dark or foggy, you will never know what is front of you, slow and steady, drive carefully

[@progger53]

Stephanie is my cousin. I saw her that night at the hospital and she looked all banged up. I asked how she was doing and she asked me how I was doing instead. That made me start crying.

[@coreyhill681]

Very interesting, how is you're cousin doing now

[@PrincessEli82]

Today marks the 28th anniversary of when this accident happened so Dustin is 43 now and Stephanie is 47. I suppose they’re both married with children. When I saw the train hit the car, I said ”Holy moly!” It frightened the daylights out of me. That fog was thick as pea soup.

[@BrokenFootRailfan]

I don't know who needs to hear this but wear a seatbelt! It's not hard and it can save your life. I commented below but a seatbelt saved my life when I was T-boned less than a mile from my house. I broke my hip but I survived. If I had been ejected it would have been so much worse.

[@sarenakushner5942]

I always make sure I am constantly looking at railway crossings just in case or if the gates aren't working

[@EricWhiteTheGamer]

I am 16 now, still on permit and I cant even think about how they all felt.

[@PrincessEli82]

It’s been 33 years since this happened so Stephanie is 52 and Dustin is 48 now. At the time this happened, I was nine and in third grade and my brother Andrew was seven and in first grade. We were living in Fountain Hills, Arizona attending McDowell Mountain Elementary school. This also happened on Veterans Day.

[@AllieThePrettyGator]

Nothing can stop a train children

[@PrincessEli82]

30 years have passed since this happened so Dustin is 45 now and Stephanie is 49. This happened on a Monday and 17 days before Thanksgiving. It must’ve been freezing out there because it’s in Iowa. I’m sure Dustin and Stephanie said “Thank you” to those who save their lives. When I saw them get hit by the train, I was terrified because I thought that it might’ve killed them or worse paralyzed them. I’d hate for something like that to me or someone I know.

[@everestjk]

This also happened on Veterans Day or, as we call it in Canada, Remembrance Day.

[@PrincessEli82]

@@everestjk Thank you. I forgot about that!

[@everestjk]

@@PrincessEli82 You're welcome!

[@michellelord7806]

They had guardian angels watching over them. As a warning please don’t drive in foggy weather

[@autumnprincess5680]

2:45 This is starting to get scary

[@AndrewChukin]

I thought it was a ghost train because of the fog

[@sarenakushner5942]

In chili I think there is a Crossing and for the longest time growing up it didn't have gates but about 16 years ago gates and lights were installed

[@suecurtis8313]

watch out for the train sue!

[@nc8414]

They decided to go out in the bad weather and get driving practice? Wtf?

[@FirstPrince1992]

In order to get your full drivers license, you have to practice driving in all kinds of weather first with someone else in the car.

[@robertahoffman3387]

Triaging patients on an accident scene is difficult when it involves pediatric patients!!

[@robertahoffman3387]

The first responders who treated the injured victims of a traffic accident made a damn good decision to transport them to Wayne County Hospital 🏥 and the doctors 🥼 at that er said they needed a trauma center which was 80 miles away!! They were code yellows that means immediate care

[@rjs2085]

Why would you go out on a joyride on a night like that?

[@tupac280001]

that wasn't joyriding he was trying to learn to drive so he could get his driver's lic.

[@tupac280001]

@raymondman09 he wanted his driver lic that was/is probably required

[@critter2]

its too foggy for heliplctor

[@larchman4327]

It ain't so bad Dustin. You done get up and walk it off now ya hear.

[@Blank53689]

2:57 *CRASH* 🚗💥🚂

[@danielcreed2328]

973 braked hard, but it was too late...

[@PrincessEli82]

I could actually hear the train. I hear a train from my house. The reason I hear it is because I live near Carolina Pavilion and there’s a train track across the road from there.

[@White_sox_fan]

13:42 it's kind of weird to see a last name that you have in the credits

[@AndreMartens-lq8vu]

We have a property the long driveway that goes to it crosses the train tracks and all there are is signs saying railroad crossing always stop

[@mrsNetty34]

Wear seatbelts

[@BrokenFootRailfan]

Seriously. A seatbelt saved my life and although I have a lifelong injury I'm glad to have survived!

[@VirginianRailway]

this is why its illegal and highly dangerous to run in front of a train

[@surlywithfabshoes]

Why did this happen to my son? Why??? Because you let an inexperienced drive go at night in ice and heavy fog…..

[@kishla2827]

Choo choo train choo choo choo train baby

[@mcgirlletsgo7135]

I wonder if the boy hadn’t been such a baseball star if the town still would cared as much? I doubt it!
