The wife’s scream was CHILLING. I’m glad he’s okay
My dad once had his truck break down on a train tracks with a train coming he stayed calm and he kept trying to get the truck started at the last minute he got it started thank you God for saving his life
He definitely had a guardian angel
Your dad's name isn't Hank Hill by any chance, is it?
@@hell5309 Hank's truck didn't start, he just got out of it in that episode before the truck got obliterated.
I have to say Thank You to EVERYONE WHO SAVED HIM !!!!!
He died in 2007 unfortunately, cancer I think :(
Simple warning, people: Don't try to outrun a train. You can't beat trains.
Okay, I'm sick of this, so I'm just going to say it:
If you're going to try to beat a train, FLOOR IT.
Can you win in a collision with a train? Absolutely not. But can you beat the train across the tracks? Potentially, yes. But you HAVE TO FLOOR IT!
@raymondman09 If you know how fast the train's going and your vehicle's top speed, the possibility exists.
@@hell5309 it's not worth your life or your family having to deal with you not being there if you get hit by the train is it really worth your life to have to wait 30 seconds for a train it's not just stop for Chist sakes!!!!
Of your already close enough to the the tracks to beat it you can if your to far you won't beat it
It's against Federal Law, to beat the train!
We need more shows like this, that depict emergency officials as the hard working, determined, brave, intelligent, community minded people they really are! Too many shows today depict emergency officials as complete and utter fools, and that is absolutely insulting! These are the very people who risk their lives every day for the people in their community.
poor guy, first his store gets robbed, then he gets hit by a train
You could clearly see the train coming it was supposed to stop
@@tomedy_official trains cant stop in less then a quarter mile, if the train was going any faster it could have taken a mile or greater
@@SoonerStateSirens1 it takes a train going 55mph approximately a mile and a half to stop. He was lucky and blessed to survive.
I know, you get robbed and almost die. Man, he has bad luck but lucky to be alive
The title of this episode should be "Truck vs. Train, or, Adding Injury to Insult".
I guess some people will never learn. Don't try to beat a train, the stakes aren't worth it. At least he came out of the whole thing alive.
The crossing that this guy was at didn't have gates or lights. It just had the white X sign.
allgood2000 that’s against federal law
However, the current federal mandate amongst trains Didn’t happen until After the Fox River Grove Illinois Train-bus collision on October 25, 1995 in Fox River Grove Illinois. Seven people died. Five of those people died immediately and two of them died later at the hospital. Patricia catencam, the driver was fired from her job after tha. She was never allowed to drive a bus again.
@@VictorAFurr my guess is the bus operator didn't realize the overhang the train had.
Well done portrayal! even the detail of the brakeman with his lantern...
EXCEPT: Locomotive had its horn blowing all the while, even during the collision.
Good Job adding the links to the end of the video David!
I like this one because it is from Wisconsin!!!
Thanks again allgood2000 for uploading another one. :-)
Ron sadly passed away in 2007, 16 years after the train crash. He had been battling cancer for several years.
Oh :(
How sad.
Oh man, that railroad crossing could use some warning lights.
Yeah. Ordinary crossbucks are more hazardous than ones with lights and gates. Crossbuck crossings are really a dare for anyone willing to try to beat the train.
I agree
I mean if every third class railroad equipped modern crossings most would only have a few locomotives if anything
They Should Of Place A Stop Sign Or A Yield Sign
@@Blank53689 No matter what device is on the crossing, its not a valid excuse to try and beat a train to a crossing. The driver in this incident was pure idiocy
I put in my vote for 911 to get released on DVD, and to be put on TV again, so I guess my deed to sign is done!
Yes...very good rules to listen to. When I was eight years old I got too close to a train passing by. Neighbor lady came out of her house and said I was much too close. She ended up making me cry!!
I can hardly believe today's the 30th anniversary of when this happened. We hear this happened on a Monday. One more thing Ron passed away in 2008. Before his death, he and Linda apparently sold their shop, which was located at Sias Isles Boat Livery in Onalaska.
I wonder what Linda is like today. I wonder if she’s on Facebook?
I just voted for it to be released on DVD, and voted for it to be put back on TV! I hope all this voting helps!
Not all crossings have gates and lights.
I wonder if the store thief saw this clip.
This was filmed in Dodge, WI, on the Green Bay & Western Railroad.
GB&W 313 is an Alco C424, now at work - along with several GBW Alcos - on MNNR in the Twin Cities.
+Pete Kranz From what I can tell and based on the knowledge of my uncle that lives in WI and lived .2 miles away from where this was filmed, this is what happened. The actual train you refer to (ALCO C424, GBW313) was involved in the accident, however, this was a repainted Alco to look like this train for the reinactment.
No. The accident happened in Onalaska, WI, near La Crosse WI, about 1 mile from where I lived at the time. They re-enacted the incident in Dodge, WI, on the GB&W railroad. Dodge is a hamlet of about 50 people. Onalaska had about 10,000 at the time, but the railroad in question was the double track Burlington Northern, which I also worked for.
Hope that helps.
I'm just stating what I heard from him. He also worked on the Burlington Northern (Last name is Carley). He's from West Salem, which isn't that far away from La Crosse. Small world.
West Salem is my hometown. Watch the clip, it'll all make sense.
I did watch the clip, saw your comment and remembered what I was told. I could have misunderstood, but from what I heard, is the train in the video reenactment (not so much the location) is not the actual train involved. It has the same identifiers as the train because the production crew wanted it to be as realistic as possible. I could be wrong, but that's all I know to tell you. I'm not BSing at all.
It wasn't his time to die,and i hope they put it back on TV.
The heavier something is, the longer it takes it to stop because it has more momentum.
They can't stop quite that fast, but they stop faster with the emergency brakes.
Incredible. Looking at the crash, how could he have come out of that without being cut in half and shattered into pieces. O_O
I wonder if someone did break in that night or it it was a false alarm. They never say or say if the person got caught
It's amazing that he just didn't call the police to.xheck.it out! He was no cop anyways!
Not all areas had 911 back then. In some places you had to dial a seven-digit number.
It's still his fault, he took a chance when he should have stopped. I don't think catching a burglar is as important as not getting hit by a trian. Plus, what would he have done if the burglar was still there? He wasn't armed or anything and the burglar might have been.
You would be surprised what unarmed people can do to protect what's theirs
And it's not his fault m it's whoever tripped the alarms fault
Could try seeing the car they drove or the license plate.
It's been 28 years since this happened. Ron decided to catch the burglar who broke in fast. Suddenly a train was approaching. When I saw the train hit the car, I was like "Oh my gosh!" It scared me to death. Linda was frightened because she thought Ron might not survive. But he did. I was also afraid that he was going to be paralyzed plus never walk or use his arms again. I’m sure Ron can never thank Bruce and the rest of the paramedics enough for what they did to save his life. It’s amazing how Bruce knew Ron. Without the paramedics including Bruce’s help, Ron wouldn’t be alive and Linda would be a widow. But she’s not. Collapsed lungs are serious. Ron and Linda still think about that night. Ron has broken ribs and shoulder blade. Plus punctured lung. I’m sure he will always hold a place in his heart for those who were there for him.
It’s been 33 years since this happened. At the time, I was 8 3/4 turning 9 and my brother Andrew was 6 1/2 turning seven. It was the end of the school year. I was sending second grade and Andrew was ending kindergarten. we were living in Fountain Hills, Arizona and attending McDowell Mountain Elementary School. We had already gone to bed and were ready for school the next day.
I think that's "Christmas Tree Inferno" from Episode 512, but I don't have that one and I haven't seen it in a long time, so I don't really remember that much about it.

"What was that siren at 4:19?"
Either a Federal Signal Director, Interceptor, or PA200 with the selector knob in between WAIL and YELP to create that tone.
I love these old police shows
If I was that burglar, I would turn myself in after that. Knowing that guy nearly was killed trying to catch me doing I knew I wasn't supposed to be doing.
Everybody go vote! Sign the petition! Get it put on DVD, and on television again! DO IT! DO IT! EMERRRGGEEENNNCCCYYY!!!!
If the guy is worried about thieves getting away with burglary, he should have also installed security cameras at the bait shop.
30+ years ago they were way more expensive and not that great of quality. Late 80s early 90s very few places had security cameras.
Thank God everyone survived
@1RadicalOne It's mostly slick editing. Notice that in the shot where the train actually hits the truck, the truck is parked on the tracks with no one in it. I'm not sure how they got the shot right before that of the truck driving in front of the train; perhaps they green screened it or had the truck positioned at an angle were it only looked like it was in front of the train.
The python segment from Episode 628 also happened in Wisconsin (it was one of the first segments I uploaded). There was another with a covered wagon accident from Episode 712 that happened in Wisconsin, but unfortunately I don't have that one. Those are the only three Wisconsin segments I know of.
allgood2000 At the end of the videos, there's a message saying to sign the petition to bring back "Rescue 911" to TV. Is any such petition still available? I'd definitely be willing to sign it electronically. Thanks.
@@josephmaxwell4278 It looks like the petition site is no longer active.
Yes, except for one, which is the intro for Real Stories of the Highway Patrol.
The one where a woman was trying to feed a pet python and it constricted around her arm.
Omg I watched that the other day
I only know of two others. One where a woman was attacked by a pet python, and one where a woman was thrown from a covered wagon.
So far every episode from this series has been civilian error... No railroad was at fault. Only the incompetent people. Just bless the hearts of the train crews that had to deal with this ignorance..
HAHA, reminds me of Lethal Weapon4. the bad guys try to push Mel gibsons car on the tracks while a train's coming. Last second Mel slams it in drive and flies across the tracks. And the villain's Tahoe gets slammed twice- by 2 different trains. Love that scene!!!
i really liked that truck
If it was a private rail crossing, then there might be a sign with the crossbucks, but there would be no signal.
I am severely pissed about that truck. They didnt have to use a 70s gmc!!!!
They used a 1950s alco locomotive with only about 20 original locomotives left.
It was a Chevy. Even worse to use :(.
Trains cannot STOP. It's simpler to just contact local LEO instead of going after the guys. It's just too dangerous out there.
You have to get a username and password for tvshowsondvd, then go back to that link.
the crash from this segment is used for the Highway to heaven and Rescue 9-1-1- promos for the family channel.
That's why you race the train or streets, accidents happen in the blink of the eye, have to be careful
One exception- In the runaway boxcars episode the railroad was definitely at fault. All the victims did is not stop at a crossing where the lights and gates weren't in operation, which most people don't.
A few do though, including myself, and with me it's a result of seeing that segment.
This was a GBW alco, video filmed near Arcadia WI
Ron was probably not wearing a seat belt since he was thrown out of his truck.
Damn I would panic too. I have a fear of being trapped on my back in a small space. I have that nightmare a lot.
Takes place in Wisconsin, that's a surprise.
Ouch! That's gotta hurt!
Dont run the train because youre going to lose.
BML54 © I think the saying is "Racing a Train @ the Crossing, it's the only race where you lose it's a tie"
If you're too slow, that is.
You can't fault the guy. He wanted to stop the
burglar.
1) Where is Onalaska, WI?
2) I would think, that in order to have your story(s) on Rescue 911, you'd have to be very courageous with an excellent memory!
3) I'm surprised Linda didn't make more of an effort to stop her husband from going near where the train was coming; he probably would've not been injured quite as severely ...or not injured at all.
I knew from the beginning that he has going to play chicken with the train when it was in clear open view and never saw the brake light come on.
@someone7974 depends on the location of the tracks and the limits placed out by the dispatcher. Some places trains go about 50 miles per hour yes. But I have been to Onalaska, Wi and the BNSF only runs trains at about 35. They have a massive railyard in La Crosse and a CP/Amtrak diamond near the yard.
TJY Productions 60 mph where the accident happened.
@pizzalover85 I know that like a jillion people have answered ur question but I have something else to add. The locomotive was about two feet from the crossing when he started braking so even if it was going slower it still wouldnt have stopped in time
Might have been Milwaukee
Vote NOW, Vote for RESCUE 911 to COME BACK to TV and to DVD
Thank God he survived!
@scorpianofthesun it depends on the speed which from what I've heard is 50 mph and the weight of what it's hauling if anything at all. They don't stop on a dime though for a fact
Actually, being a railfan, An EMPTY 50foot boxcar weighs roughly 65,000 pounds or 33 tons (approx)....A loaded one weighs about 286,000 pounds or 133 tons (approx). That pickup weighs no more than 5,000 pounds. This train obviously has more than one boxcar, not to mention a locomotive (train engine that pulls the train cars) that weighs about 268,000 pounds....its obviously heavy and like they say "A TRAIN HITTING A CAR IS LIKE A BICYCLE HITTING AN EMPTY SODA CAN"
Happened in May of 1991. I don't know about the train.
allgood2000 the train is a Sp aka a southern pacific 313 which was the number and it was a sd40 I researched and it was scraped in 1993
And that train has been in service for 10 years it had a long life of 12 years
They also aren't too likely to install gates or even lights at private rail crossings.
That alarm sounds simlar to a fire alarm
I was thinking that, too...very reminiscent of a fire drill at school.
Onalaska, Wisconsin.
Remember a train can weigh well over 100000 tonnes and are fast, it is hard to judge the speed of a moving object when it is coming straight at you especially in low viability such as a night.
Plus the emotional impact does not just effect your family, it effects the driver of the train and anyone who witnessed the crash.
THE TRAIN WILL WIN.
Ain’t No Way Train Can Stop That Fast
I don't see many of those generation Chevrolet & GMC fullsize pickups on the roads anymore like I use to back in the day, same with the Suburban, K5 Blazer, & Jimmy models.
No, the weight from an empty coal car is the weight of 200 personal cars like you and I drive. The engine of the train weighs in around 2,000 tons (or so a train engineer told me). Take the weight of the engines add the weight of all the cars and the load and then calculate the momentum. My guess is they stopped the train there for the sake of this being a reenactment.
Onalaska Wisconsin is a good town. North of LaCrosse WI.
I don't know, I've never seen it.
I too am a railfan and I have to say that ajaaniajaa's numbers are incorrect. Only loaded coal cars get up to 286,000lbs. An empty freight car weighs about 60,000lbs. Today's road engines like ES44AC's and SD70ACe's are about 455,000lbs. The engine in the video looks like a GP30 with Alco trucks. I may be wrong though. That wngine weighs about 245,000lbs. And lastly A train hitting a car, is like a car hitting a soda can.
Yes, I have that one.
How did they get the footage of the collision? This was before CGI, and noone else was around to film the event...
1RadicalOne They recreated the accident on the GBW at Dodge, WI, 30 miles NNW of Onalaska.
Did the lady seriously pick up a phone book to dial 911?
i felt bad for the guy but i think risking your life trying to catch a burglar is a bit dense
It's a common song on a kid's train video.
Wrong, he knew the train was there ("I thought I could beat the train"), and it is the drivers responsibility to be sure the track is clear, also the horn would be enough warning (unless they are deaf or have their music way too loud).
I don't think you should be judging a locomotive's manufacturer by its size. For me, I distinguish an ALCO road switcher from an EMD by the angle of the center windshield window panes, the flat front of the short hood, the contour of the cab roof, absence of fan grilles on the roof, the large radiator grilles towards the rear, and the AAR "Type B" trucks.
But that's just my opinion. If you're speaking from your own experience, then that's fine.
Really wish Baymax was in these episodes.
We all never beat the train especially a good Samaritan who tries to stop that damn burglar. If I were that truck driver, I always look, listen, and live so I don't want to lose my life just like he does despite a major crime alert that must be stopped before police arrived
I miss this shoe
*show you mean? 🙂😉
I will never understand why some people think they could beat the train 🚂. That usually will never happen
Currently not, there isn't enough interest. That's why we're trying to get people to vote for it on tvshowsondvd(dot)com.
I’ll NEVER understand how the fuck this happens geez.
The emergency braking loudness is about 126 decibels at 10 to 25ft
This is why you watch out for oncoming trains
@1RadicalOne it's called recreation i helped them film an episode back way back when. used a section of new freeway that wasnt connected yet for a car accident scene. most of their episodes were recreations except for any dash cam or news footage.
What on earth is that guy doing going after the burglars???? You could seriously get hurt!!! Call the cops and let them handle it!
***** And he did get seriously hurt.
***** - You're right, it wasn't smart of him...Most accidents on Rescue 911 happen because of people's poor judgement, carelessness, etc...Honestly, I don't know how Ron survived!
The quote from his wife sticks with me: "There must've been an angel or guardian looking out for [Ron] somewhere...because...you don't normally tackle a train and come out on the winning side..." How true.
He should’ve done what his wife said; call the police immeditly instead. However, I’ll can understand him. Acting first and thinking afterwards can cause situations like this without thinking twice before.
Fortunately the train wasn't doing a high velocity of speed otherwise the scene would have been much more devastating. It was to bad that their business was robbed a lot.
The locomtive is an ALCO C424 almost looks like the ole GB&W
Never ever attempt to beat a train because you will never win!! Also, there was no gates that came down, no nothing to warn him...still..his choice to beat a train almost cost him his life!
good looking and good sounding train . do u now wat type of diesel engine ran that train
