March 06, 2024

In the quiet town of Langley, B.C., a typical morning turned into a heart-stopping event as a train hurtled towards a stranded motorhome on the tracks. The scene, captured by a local business owner's camera, reveals the harrowing moments leading up to the inevitable collision. Horns blare in warning, and amidst the chaos, a figure flees, captured in the lens with a backdrop of impending disaster. As the locomotive's momentum surges forward, there's a collective gasp, and then... impact.

Responding to the scene with urgency, Langley RCMP officers quickly assessed the aftermath. The motorhome, no match for the sheer force of the oncoming train, lay wrecked, a testament to the gravity of the situation. Fortunately, in this tale of calamity, there's a silver lining: no one was present inside the doomed vehicle when fate intervened, averting potential tragedy.

"The driver and occupants of the motorhome were not inside as the train collided with it. Thankfully no one was injured," expressed a Langley RCMP spokesperson, echoing a sentiment of relief that echoed through the community.

As authorities pieced together the events leading up to the collision, CN police stood by, offering support and cooperation in the investigative process. While questions lingered in the air, one fact remained clear: amidst the chaos and destruction, the blessing of safety prevailed.
