MIDLAND, Texas (AP) -- A harrowing train crash in West Texas that killed four war veterans unfolded in a rapid-fire 20 seconds -- from the time the crossing bells and lights activated to the collision. ??
The National Transportation Safety Board released a detailed timeline Saturday, pieced together from video images on the train, a sheriff's car and the train's equivalent of a black box. ??
?
?
The parade was organized by a group called Show of Support. Group member Michael McKinney says the truck was donated. ?
?
According to the timeline, the truck entered the tracks after the warning lights had gone off. ?
?
The veterans and their spouses had only seconds to jump off. At the same time, the train conductor pulled the emergency brake in an attempt to come to a screeching halt. ??
