It was a whole armada in action! In Rettenbach near Bad Ischl, a car driver collided with a train on a level crossing. The vehicle was completely destroyed and flung into a field. But miraculously, the driver got out of the wreck himself and was uninjured. 

"Car crashed head-on into train - person trapped", with this ominous message, the emergency services of the Rettenbach fire station, the Bad Ischl main fire station and the Pfandl fire brigade were alerted to the Mühlenweg shortly after 3 pm on Tuesday.

Rescue, the emergency doctor, the rescue helicopter and several police patrols were also alerted. However, it turned out on site that everything was not as bad as it looked. A car had been hit by a train, thrown into an adjacent meadow and completely destroyed. 

Passengers evacuated
However, the driver was able to free himself from the wreckage and was uninjured. The train passengers also escaped with a scare, but had to be evacuated by the fire department because the difference in level between the carriages and the meadow was very high. The train could not continue its journey. They were transported on in replacement buses.
