A lorry driver ignored warnings that he should break through the barriers at a level crossing in Gdańsk, Poland, moments before his vehicle was struck by a train.
The driver's lorry had become stuck when barriers came down while the vehicle was making its way across the tracks.
CCTV shows a PKP Intercity train, the country's national long-distance rail operator, travelling from Gdynia to Zielona Góra collide with the lorry at about 1:20 pm CET.
