Gotta wonder if alcohol played a part. I kinda hope not.

after their car crashed into an Amtrak train
Into, a train, not hit by a train, hit head-on by a train. I guess A+ for trying to not break the arms but, apparently, swerved into the left lane so he could cut through the arms like it was a ski run and they were flags. It didn't even derail the train. I kind of hope this was alcohol related because that's not as scary a thought as just another arrogant narcissist that thought they were better and smarter than everyone else.

My guess is it was sideswiped by the train and it's worded that way to let you know the car was at fault. It's possible it ran into the side of the train, but that's almost never gate runners. Almost nobody drives through the gates even if they are stopped on the tracks with a train coming. Don't ask me why, the arms are mostly aluminum, designed to break off, and the damage from the arms is nothing compared to what the cow catcher is going to do. Collisions with automobiles almost never lead to a derailed locomotive, the only one I can remember around here involved a garbage truck and a passenger train. Most freight locomotives weigh over 200 tons. It doesn't mention a time of day so alcohol is anybody's guess, surprisingly a lot of people run the gates just because they're in a hurry.

I don't know east Houston the way I do west and north, but that looks like the area of what they call "Five Points Crossing" because it's something like two different sets of tracks and three road all intersect in what is now mostly ghetto. There's been all kinds of carnage there over the decades.
