Although it is not a common occurrence in Mexico, as there is not an extensive network of train lines, a taxi driver tried gain passage to his railroad, but failed .

The moment was recorded by a witness in a circumstantial way, since the person tried to capture the passage of the locomotive, as it was an unusual event, however, suddenly, a white and yellow car appeared at the scene, same that was run over by the heavy transport.

Ok To the voice of the person recording, he was enjoying the passage of the train after years of thinking that he would not see it again, he even mentioned, “We are in the cruise ship of the Towers, we are going to see something that was not seen for years. I thought it no longer existed. ”

Fortunately, in his attempt to overcome the passage of the train, the taxi freed more than half of the structure, so the impact occurred in the rear of the vehicle, causing the railway to drag it by one of its sides, without pass over the car.

Thus, the public service car, with license plates A – 074 – FUF, traveled a couple of meters, before being to one side of the highway, as the train continued on its way, blowing its whistle.

According to information from local media, personnel from the emergency services were transferred to the place who attended to the crew of the vehicle.

The taxi driver was identified as a man from 55 years; In addition, two males, 51 and 55 years, who were valued by Red Cross personnel, without the need to transfer them.
