quote:

Authorities say Thompson was standing between two sets of tracks Friday in Navasota when a BNSF Railway train approached.

She moved out of the way of the train but was apparently unaware that a Union Pacific train was coming in the opposite direction on the other tracks and was struck.




Even more fricked up, from another article.
quote:

Thompson, who was pregnant at the time of her death, was posing for a photo shoot at the intersection of two railroad tracks in Texas.

Maybe I'm not seeing it but how do you not know a train is coming from the other direction if you are in the middle of two tracks?

These 19yr olds need to stay away from trains. It's like the 4th time this week.

Is this where we say she couldn't get her career on the right track?

To be fair, I didn't search. But I also don't care.

Thought this gif might be appropriate. But then read she was pregnant.

That's not even a mainline track--it's a turnout, which means that trains aren't doing 50-60mph, which begs the question how dumb does one have to be to get hit?
