Narrative

An employee was riding the leading-end platform of a railcar as it was entering a road crossing when a semi-truck and trailer operated by a third-party trucking company entered the crossing just in front of the train. The train was unable to stop in time to avoid a collision and the employee was struck by the truck, which fractured both of his legs above the ankle.
