Malton rail level crossing crash victim, 77, dies-BBC News

Damage to train
A British Transport Police representative said: "Sadly, the driver of the car, who is believed to be a 77-year-old local man, has died."
He said the man's name would not be released until a coroner opens an initial inquest into the death.
The collision happened on a farm track, which crosses a country estate.
Network Rail said the crossing was what it calls a "user-worked crossing", meaning anyone wanting to cross the line has to telephone for permission first.
It has been gradually closing many level crossings and 230 have shut since 2009.
Rail services in the area were affected as a result of the crash and rail replacement bus services were put in place.
