Already gone,

How did that happen? Blind crossing? I don't mean any disrespect. How do you get hit by a train? Stopped by traffic and couldn't move out of the way? Just wondering not trying to hijack the thread...

It was my own stupidity. I was eastbound and wanting to go southbound on across street. The barricade was down at the right hand cut through and went 50more feet and made a 90degree right hand turn onto the cross street that had no barricade figuring I could besat the train, and I didn't.. I was stupid and am very lucky to be alive.

I had looked for a good Burb for over a year and found that one a month earlier with only 89,00 miles on it. It also had a trailer tow package and 3:42's with posi. I lost my Burb but because it was a Burb is probably why I'm still standing !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well its like this.. When I knew I was gonna get hit I had enough time to say to myself out loud, and I quote " Aw f**k I'm gonna die".. I was pushed about an eighth mile and yes it was loud and scary. If you notice I have a bruise on my left arm, its from me hanging on and twisting the steering wheel and I was being pushed down the tracks.

No Pic (sorry), but my most significant mod is putting in a cargo bed light, and wiring it to the brake circuit to be my third brake light. I use a red light bulb and it works real well. Cnut

I have one on my white stepper made by Perma-Cap. The cap has a round flap door in the center for the gas nozzle to go thru. I have had it on for five years and never any trouble at all. This may be worth looking into for yours.
