Driver emerges unscathed after train hits vehicle at railroad crossing in SW Houston

  

HOUSTON -- For the third day in a row, a vehicle has been hit by a train in our area.

The latest accident happened at Beechnut and Newcastle in southwest Houston, near the border of Bellaire. The driver of a Hyundai Sonata was hit by a train at the railroad crossing. Amazingly, there were no reports of serious injuries and the car appeared to have only minor damage. Police cleared the scene fairly quickly.

On Wednesday, two people inside a car were hit by a train at a crossing in southwest Houston. The driver was taken to a hospital.

And on Tuesday, we showed you iWitness video of a train barreling into a truck at a crossing in Montgomery County. The trailer had gotten stuck on the tracks. No one was hurt.
