The (safe for work) camera recording of the collision was released as a warning to the general public: https://nos.nl/l/2588609.

People, just drive through the barrier should you ever get caught like that, it's made to break in case of emergency and can easily be replaced. Instead, now 2000 meters of track and the entire installation at this crossing needs to be replaced. So no trains will run there for at least a week.
