Dang. That was an expensive lesson. Too bad about the truck but at least nobody was hurt.

I saw that thread. Not much sense to be made of it. He was sure ready to roll it back once that train popped out of the tunnel. Why did he need the onlookers' help with that? They heard it coming long before it came into sight, yet only then he yells for his wife to get out. Why did he climb up there from the river? Was he thinking he'd cross the bridge? He needed to get across the river. He took a wrong turn. The thing to do would have been double back to get to the correct turn. Not a lot of options with steep slopes and a river running through. Why stage a claim when the truck could sell for good money in short time?
