Hit the floor and get down is what I would recommend the engineer do. The tank may have a lot of weight but a train has much more weight at a perpendicular angle moving at speed it will definitely push the tank and cause the damage. But it could easily derail a train too.
 
I will say though, those tracks do look nice with the concrete ties and catenary. However when there’s tanks crossing I guess it doesn’t matter what condition the tracks are in…
 
Even an 18 wheeler can derail a train - - -
Tank and Train engine - irresistible force meets immovable object #$&%*@ !
Interesting what would happen if the turret gun where to contact the catenary wire conducting a full electric circuit !
