He did not stop at the crossing but drove through at 15 mph. and was struck on the passenger side of his cab by an AMTRACK train traveling 79 mph. His semi seemed to explode into several pieces and the operator was killed from multiple injuries. Limited visibility may have been from a tree line and the fact the crossing was not at right angles to the road. They were unable to determine if he was wearing a seatbelt.
