See: Dump Truck Gets Stuck On Tracks As Driver Barely Escapes Train

The Spring Fire Department tweeted picture of the dump truck

KHOU reports:

A dump truck driver is lucky to be alive after getting stuck on railroad tracks as a train approached in Spring Wednesday.
“Thank goodness everything stayed on the rails 'cause there were HAZMAT cars on that train,” said District Chief Chris vonWiesenthal of the Spring Fire Department, while watching the dashcam video...
“This is nothing short of a miracle that people were not injured in this incident,” vonWiesenthal said.
He said the truck driver did the right thing by steering toward the shoulder to avoid colliding with another car and potentially pushing it onto the tracks.
Maddy Nguyen and her husband saw the whole thing while sitting at a stoplight at Kuykendahl and Kuykendahl-Hufsmith.
Their dashcam was rolling when the dump truck driver lost control, skidded off the road and onto the railroad tracks.
