I agree that cars get given cop voice, but this particular example I’m not sure how you could reword that sentence. I think I would say “train derails after striking x” regardless of what the object was.
Train derails after striking cow escaped from pasture. Train derails after striking fallen log.
How about “negligent driver causes trail derailment”
Active voice first.
"A car on the train tracks caused an East LA Metro train to derail"
I like hearing the important part first, here being "train derails"
Fair enough but establishing a causative form is critical here. As written, the train is to blame for striking the car in the same way a car is to blame for striking the pedestrian.
Train derailed by wayward car on tracks
Train derails due to car crossing a red light
