Chrysler 300 Limo Suspended on Tracks Makes For a Brutal Train Crash

Stretch limos have always had their fair share of issues and the most recent example of this comes from Indiana, where an elongated Chrysler 300 was wrecked by a train.
The limo was trying to cross the railroad tracks in Elkhart, IN, when it got stranded on the tracks. The vehicle was transporting a group of teenagers as part of a birthday party celebration.

Fortunately, the teens and the driver were all able to exit the vehicle before it got wrecked by the train. In fact, the footage is believed to come from one of the passengers.

We also see people trying to signal the train, but, either due to lack of time, or inspiration, the men attempting to prevent the crash were doing this too close to the limo in order for the train to have time to stop.

As you’ll be able to see in the clip, which seems to come straight from a Hollywood production, the limo takes plenty of damage, while the tracks and the train were also affected. Fortunately, nobody was injured in the incident.

After so many videos showing vehicles getting stranded on the tracks, we can’t say we’re surprised by this one. Nevertheless, we didn’t expect the limo to take the impact so well. The train hit the vehicle in its middle, where the chassis was stretched and the limo manages to remain in one piece even after being pushed for quite a long distance over the tracks.
