That thought crossed my mind afterward. But it is what it is and I am still here, and not much worse for wear. A little wiser mind you.

Nope, I am pretty sure I used all my luck that day.
The train sliced through the trunk. But since I was moving forward, it actually left the left taillight undamaged. The rear window was blown out. My wallet was actually thrown from my top pocket into the back seat.
The only thing I bought from the salvage yard that day was a 8X10" piece of tin for my 5/4 ton. We found that about 75 feet down the ditch. I also had a hammer in the tool bag. I suspect the momentum must have been higher on that item as we never did find it.
Both side airbags deployed, along with a little airbag in my seat. I don't think I contacted with them, as I was pushed in to the middle of the car by the spinning momentum. The center console was pushed over on it's mounts.
