Wow- I haden't heard about this. I live in Dearborn and have taken that train to Chicago many times. Once during the 1980's on the way back we hit a pickup truck at a crossing. No one felt a thing. The train stopped and backed up. The front of the truck was tore up. Luckily the driver was not injured. I guess the front of the truck was just a little too close to the track.

I'm a Fire Captain and not heard of that.

Boy is that a lot of paperwork

Talk about being focused on the accident.
