Thank God that they are ok🙏🏾
Thank God they escaped
That track is where the Express train travels this was another reason the company installed loud warning sounds at 115th,119th and other areas where accidents where accidents have occurred it might be all over there hasn't been an accident at that track in many years. Those children are going to be traumatized I pray all of them get some help. I'm praying he wasn't trying to outrun the train my Part 2. Praying for all of them
People don't realize how fast the train is actually going, and tons of steel will demolish a car, even if it's passing by slowly.
It sounds like the car stopped or they experienced some kind of vehicle trouble. Otherwise, they would’ve kept driving instead of taking the time to get out!
