Shocking footage of the train crash with a truck in Tennessee

Train

A freight train hit a trailer truck while crossing the railroad tracks in Tennessee.

The crash and subsequent derailment happened in the Chattanooga suburb of Collegedale in Hamilton County around 1:30 p.m., and the moment was recorded by several bystanders.

Eyewitness video shows the moment the Norfolk Southern train crashes into a long concrete highway barrier.

The trailer appeared to be moving very slowly at the time of the crash, which produced a loud noise and split the vehicle in two.

The collision also caused the derailment of several train wagons and blocked traffic.

Two people were transported to hospitals due to injuries, but their health condition is reported to be good.

Otherwise, US police asked residents to stay away from the area near University Drive and Apison Pike.
