minus-square@pearsaltchocolatebarlinkEnglish13•9 months agoTrains have a fuck ton of momentum, and this was an express train. It likely also had a cattle guard on the front which could explain the air it got.
minus-square@emergencyfood@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkEnglish5•9 months agoThe average train in India is 24 coaches long, plus a loco and a guard van. Let’s say the loco is 100 tonnes and the coaches and van are 20 tonnes each. That’s 600 tonnes moving at around 100 km/hr. I can totally believe the cow flying that high.
