emergency crews on hand did not appear concerned about any occupants of the truck, so I can only assume that it was empty when struck. nearest grade crossing to this location is about a mile back at Spanish River Blvd.

From the looks of that truck it was good no one was in it.

Glad to see the pickup wrapped around the CSX power. Since the incident involved CSX, half expected to see the power wrapped around the truck.

I'm only assuming no one was in it.. but the absence of ambulances (or coroner's vans) at the scene highly suggests that the occupants had time to escape..
