Multiple crashes at same Central Florida railroad crossing has neighbors worried
KISSIMMEE, Fla. - Neighbors are worried about a railroad crossing in Kissimmee after a deadly crash earlier this week – and it's not the first time it's happened.
In video from the most recent crash, a car is seen dipping under a guardrail near East Vine Street just as the SunRail train approaches the intersection. One person was killed in the crash.
A similar wreck happened in 2021.
A woman who works at the market right next door says she was around for both of them.
"It’s just so sad that people keep running this one specific road. I don’t know if it’s because of the sun going down at that time. It was probably 6:30 and you couldn’t really see, because last year it was around the same time too."
Just one block away, a pedestrian was killed after being hit by a cargo train in September of last year.
