The car was tilted and the engine window was broken.

Regarding the opening and closing of the barrier by two gatekeepers, Hung and Dung (Thanh Hoa Railway Management Company Limited), Mr. Bui Dang Sau - Head of Hoang Mai Station, said: The opening and closing of the barrier and the operations of the two gatekeepers were in accordance with procedures and regulations because before the unified train SE3 was about to pass the barrier, the cement truck with license plate 37S - 6378 stalled near the railway, driver Ho Cong Lam informed the two gatekeepers so both of them broke the lead seal and closed the signal pole to prevent the train from entering the crossing. At the scene, when the accident occurred, three pieces of the protective flares were still stuck on the railway.

Thus, the actions of these two employees were in accordance with the prescribed procedures. The fault lay with train driver Nguyen Van Manh for not following the correct procedures and exceeding the signal, leading to the accident and injuring himself.
