Almost hit a truck with a mobile home on it at MP 152 on the BNSF Lafayette
Sub.this happened this morning and i yelled emergency 3 times on the radio
saying we were going to hit a house and were hitting the floor we missed the
idiot by 5 feet.

The truck driver had a flagman on the ground to tell him to back the truck
over the tracks when we were approaching and the fool was laughing at us that
pissed me and my crew off.

This is from a Railfan in my area who is with Operation Lifesaver.

According to statistics that crossing, just west of mp152
Rendesvous Rd, is the most dangerous crossing in
Lafayette Parish. It's hard to believe, but it has logged
the most fatalities in the parish.
