WOW, If I had been in that cab, I think I would get a PTSD attack just from seeing a toothpick for the rest of my life.  I guess they ducked behind the low nose in the nick of time?

Yes, a log truck collision. It happened in Northern Ontario on the transcontinental mainline sometime in the 90s. The Hogger and the Brakie hid behind the nose. I have a few more pictures if interested.

It wouldn't have helped here, but that's why there are restrictions on where to put open loads in a train!
