The photo on the RTE web site of the car looks like the occupants of the car had a very lucky escape. Luckily it was struck by one of those fisher price toy 22k trams and not a loco. The vehicle looks like it might have been an EV, KIA E-soul, so doubly lucky no issues with battery pack and all the safety stuff must have worked. No photos of the front of the tram on the media so far. https://www.rte.ie/news/connacht/2020/0429/1135658-level-crossing-miss-castlebar/ also looks like it’s a manual unmanned crossing with a history of near hits.
