Yeah, bad time to be standing there with a camcorder.yes but first time watching the full video. damn imagine being the camera guy
She had to be out instantly. The only thing I can think is the other train was running (noise) and she just didnt see the express coming. Says she was speaking to her lawyer next to her about her divorce case. So focused on that she just kept walking. Ex husband got off easy.I bet she didn't even really have time to feel much. That much weight at 60mph, I'm surprised that I didn't see body parts flying...though given the resolution of a 1991 camera, it might not have been captured.
I'll never understand how people don't check if EACH track they cross is without train. She might have just been assuming a train on that track would have only been coming from the right.
I feel like she was just following that dude and he dipped out at the last second, which she obviously didn’t even notice. Fucking wild.
Solid first post, train man. I don't ever recall seeing one of the old EMD designs in person. I have a windshield and bell and serial plate for one in my basement. I'd love to see the whole package in real life, and now I want to explore that industrial park!That E9(AM), the locomotive that hit that lady, would be retired by BN/Metra that next year. It would be sold off to MARC to work in commuter service in the DelMarVa region. Then it would make its way back to Chicagoland, under Ed Ellis' Iowa Pacific/San Luis and Rio Grande/Chicago Terminal Railway aka IOU Pacific Holdings regime. They went bankrupt a few years ago and this locomotive is still sitting stripped and abandoned in one of the industrial parks near O'Hare, either in Bensenville or Elk Grove VIllage.
The CPKC yard most likely just on the south side of Irving Park Rd.Solid first post, train man. I don't ever recall seeing one of the old EMD designs in person.
