Trains do not come off the track and chase down cars. Please think before making the stupid decision to challenge a train. The crews on these trains see this type of thing more than anyone ever should. Imagine having someone else’s death on your conscience just because they wanted to try and race you across the tracks.

This intersection has been unsafe for years, giving a greenlight as a train is coming with no warning

In case this isn't clear from the video - Metrolink 206 to Union Station hit a car stopped on the tracks. I'm on the train. We did not derail
