Amazing Escape As Car Collides With Approaching Train

[mcd]

An amazing escape now from the train track located behind the Nong Yai Temple. Police Lieutenant Colonel Jiwatpong from Banglamung Police Station was assigned to the case and made his way to the location. He was met by the owner of a badly damaged Honda Civic, Khun Akom aged 31 who explained that his car had just collided with an approaching train. In total there were seven people inside the car, all family members, who were uninjured.

He collided with train number 4113 which was on its way to Sriracha. Khun Akom explained that he approached the crossing point and failed to see the oncoming train due to trees obstructing his view. Luckily the car only clipped the side of the train and a full impact collision was avoided. A review of this crossing is now underway as barriers preventing people crossing when a train approaches, are not present.

Trees obstucting the view of a train? Interesting excuse.
