Clearly the train's fault, it did not respect the policeman's authoritah.
"And now that the legislators and do-gooders have so futilely inflicted so many systems upon society, may they finally end where they should have begun: May they reject all systems, and try liberty; for liberty is an acknowledgment of faith in God and His works." - Bastiat

All officers are OK, especially the one that was standing next to the vehicle and ran away before the train got there. They investigated themselves, and found no evidence of wrongdoing. Policies and procedures were followed. Policies and procedures are also being reviewed by the policies and procedures board, to find out if any modifications are in order.

Every year they call my phone asking for donations. Every year I tell them the same: “I don’t donate to criminal organizations”. Goes to show how low their IQs are, they still keep calling expecting a different response.

Liberty is lost through complacency and a subservient mindset. When we accept or even welcome automobile checkpoints, random searches, mandatory identification cards, and paramilitary police in our streets, we have lost a vital part of our American heritage. America was born of protest, revolution, and mistrust of government. Subservient societies neither maintain nor deserve freedom for long.

Fortunately, she managed to survive (in his thread, Jojola notes that four previous crashes at the same crossing were fatal):

Colorado Train Hits Police Cruiser with Woman Detained Inside

Frightening body camera footage caught the moment a police vehicle parked on rail tracks with a woman detained inside was hit by a freight train.
On September 16, Fort Lupton police were assisted by a Platteville police officer in arresting a female suspect involved in a high-risk vehicle in the Fort Lupton area of Colorado, according to authorities.
While detailing the woman, Yareni Rios-Gonzalez, 20, the Platteville police officer is seen parking his cruiser on the railroad tracks on Highway 85 and in the area of Weld County Road 36. The officer then places the woman inside the vehicle.
Moments later, a northbound freight train’s whistle is heard approaching in the background and collides with the police vehicle before anyone can move it or the woman out of the way.
Officers immediately performed lifesaving measures on Rios-Gonzalez, as she was transported to a hospital.
Remarkably, the woman survived but is still in the hospital with a broken arm, nine broken ribs, a fractured sternum, broken teeth, and injuries to her leg, back, and head,” said Paul Wilkinson, a personal injury attorney representing the 20-year-old woman, KMGH reported. She was noted as being able to have a conversation.
The Colorado Bureau of Investigation (CBI) took over the investigation after the Fort Lupton Police Department (FLPD) requested the state agency to investigate, as it is standard when a person in custody suffers a serious injury.
The FLPD and Platteville Police Department (PPD) noted in separate statements that they are cooperating with the CBI. The FLPD is investigating the original road rage incident, while the Colorado State Patrol is reviewing the crash.
The officer who placed the woman inside the vehicle has been placed on administrative leave, according to the PPD via KMGH.
Both police departments are facing intense public scrutiny as questions are raised as to why the suspect was detained in a vehicle parked on railroad tracks.
“I mean aren’t these guys supposed to know better. I’m just baffled that he would even park his car there,” one Facebook user commented on the PPD’s public statement.
“I just don’t understand why anyone would park a car on train tracks and then put a handcuffed human being in it,” another user commented on the FLPD’s public statement.

At which point will Americans realize that creating an unaccountable institution that is able to pass its liability on to tax-payers is immoral and attracts sociopaths?
I think we have this year's winners of the highly coveted Uvalde Medal of Law Enforcement Courage.
That is one way to get an upgraded cruiser.
I like how the cops cared more about finding a gun than they did about her safety.

Ya easy to say in hindsight. How was the Officer supposed to know that parking on train tracks is dangerous? Was there even a sign "do not park on train tracks"?“I mean aren’t these guys supposed to know better. I’m just baffled that he would even park his car there,” one Facebook user commented on the PPD’s public statement.

Train Hits Police Cruiser Containing Suspect | Analysis of Colorado Train Collision
This video answers the question: Can I analyze the case of the collision involving a Colorado police officer was parked on railroad tracks?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9mbjlXlPfC0
Sometimes I like this guy, but every once in a while he gets it all wrong.
But he nails this one.
This video is the first report I've heard that detailed her injuries. I'm just going from memory, but a broken leg, a bunch of broken ribs, a broken sternum, and broken teeth.
She was discharged quickly from the hospital which leads me to believe that she doesn't have insurance.
I guarantee that she is in horrible pain at home right now, and will be for a long time.
The vast majority of military and po-po people who have jumped on the PTSD gravy train can't hold a candle to the terror and pain that this gal suffered.
My analysis:
LEO needs more TRAINING and FUNDRAISING.
Outside of government, people are personally financially responsible for theft, damages and injury to others. Outside of government, people do not rely on tax dollars to bail them out.
When public servants are employed, they should sign contracts that if/when any damages occur they will assume full and personal financial responsibility, just like people are who are outside of government. Then you will see how fast they learn on their own - no training and fundraising necessary.
