Who's to say that it didn't?.......... that could be why the train was brought to a halt.
The media seem to have very little factual information and most reports are pure speculation or based on "eye-witness" reports from lorry drivers whose view of the incident would have been very restricted in any case. Once the investigators get to work we will probably start to discover some of the facts.
