Network Rail's unequal contest between a Class 31 and an Espace was filmed at Hibaldstow crossing in Lincolnshire.
did it make it?
My favourite is "ghost car" where they go to all kindas lengths to rationalise the stupid suggestive commentary with what they actually saw.
Wonder how far it'd go with a fully loaded freight train.
In clips I've seen of similar staged demos in the US, the speeds are lower and the damage to the car correspondingly less. Remember that kinetic energy increases as the square of speed.
In films of actual accidents, any train, freight or passenger, moving at 60 mph or more inflicts damage like this on a stationary car hit square on.
The car absorbs just enough of the available energy to get it moving with the locomotive, and the speed at impact determines the amount of damage. The car is crushed because it can't get out of the way quickly enough.
That car ended up with both sides touching. Can't get any flatter than that! Does a bullet harm you because it's heavy or because it's moving fast?
