Dramatic footage has captured the moment an Amtrak train slammed into a semi-truck car hauler at a railroad crossing near the Oklahoma-Texas border, sending cars flying into the air and leaving four people injured.
Amtrak Train 822, which runs through Fort Worth, Texas and Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, was passing through Thackerville when it slammed into a tractor trailer that got stuck on the track.
The cars on the back of the trailer are sent flying and the rig disintegrates into a cloud of debris.
Love County Sheriff Marty Grisham told ABC News that the train tracks the tractor trailer got stuck on were built up higher at that crossing and the weight of all the cars on the trailer held the vehicle down, leaving it stuck.
