5. Hmmmmm, having both his legs torn off might suggest

his legs were lying across the tracks and he might have been on his back with her on top.

8. Displacement may be a factor here.

I never thought about it until I was standing on the edge of a platform when a no-stop went full speed through the Subway station. Those trains displace a lot of air and an object moving at high speed with a large volume is going to displace enough air to pull you towards it as it passes. That was a 8-car light-rail subway train...imagine how much more a 100-car heavy-gauge freight train moves.

13. Could be...

but, like most news stories of this nature, it's lacking in many details.

Like how fast the train was actually moving

[Kaleva]

17. And also no mention of if the couple had an orgasm.

So many details left out.
