A DART train collided with a truck in Dallas on Wednesday, July 15, 2026, injuring four people.
According to NBC 5 DFW, the crash occurred at a railroad crossing when a truck and a DART train collided. Four people suffered injuries, and emergency crews responded to treat those involved and investigate the scene. The cause of the collision remains under investigation.
Train collisions can cause catastrophic injuries because of the size and momentum of rail vehicles. Investigators will likely examine whether crossing signals were functioning properly, whether the truck driver obeyed traffic control devices, visibility at the crossing, vehicle speeds, and other factors that may have contributed to the crash.
A serious train collision should be investigated quickly. Key evidence may include the crash report, DART surveillance video, locomotive event recorder data, crossing signal records, witness statements, dash camera footage, vehicle damage, cell phone records, medical records, and photos or videos from the scene.

Fourth US 75 Crash of the Morning Reported at I-635 in Dallas
A major collision on northbound US 75 at I-635 in Dallas was causing traffic delays Tuesday morning, October 13, 2026.
