A video posted on social media shows the moment three people narrowly escaped their vehicle before it was struck by a train in a railroad crossing in Forney, Texas.

The video shows a railroad crossing gate stopped atop a vehicle stuck in the crossing as a train horn blares in Forney, a suburb of Dallas.

An adult and a child can be seen running away from the vehicle on the track. A third person appears to barely get out of the way before a Union Pacific train smashes through the SUV.

According to the Forney Police Department, no one was injured in the crash.
