North Carolina Amtrak Train Crash Against Oversized Rig is Not a Hoax
Some people are claiming that the Mar. 9 crash of an Amtrak train in North Carolina against a very big rig is a hoax. It's not a hoax. Rather, it is a real event. This is demonstrated by all the evidence at hand, including live video on-scene:
HookedOnYourHoax is making it out as if this is fake. If that is an error, fine. The video should be removed from the Internet.
Even the still imagery, though, makes it clear that this is a real crash. It could not possibly be called a hoax when viewing all the imagery available.
Notice the impact zone, RE: the soil. It matches the expected consequences of the dragging of the cargo through the lines of force, that is from the road sideways.
Internet trolls make a game of real events, portraying them as fake. Mistakes can be made in assessment; however, it appears that this isn't a mistake and is instead malicious. Notice the drag lines from the wheels as they tore up the soil sideways.
Those drag lines can be seen ever so clearly here, both from the wheels and the train body. This is a real derailment. Claims otherwise are false.
No matter which way it is viewed it is obvious what happened to this rig. It was struck by the train. There is no way to fake this. Notice the shearing, tearing of the cargo and its sleeve. Notice how it has been spun off the trailer.
Shear damage is seen of RR crossing signs and posts.
