The evidence offered by the plaintiff at the trial of this action tended to show that defendant’s train approached the crossing at a speed of forty to fifty miles per hour, through a heavy fog, without giving warning of its approach by ringing the bell or blowing the whistle on the engine, or otherwise; it also tended to show that plaintiff stopped the truck which he was driving at a distance of twelve or fifteen feet from the defendant’s tracks, and looked and listened for an approaching train. He neither heard nor saw a train, and thereupon drove his truck on the crossing. Defendant’s train appeared suddenly out of the fog and struck plaintiff’s truck, before he had driven off the crossing. There was evidence tending to show that because of the fog plaintiff could not see for more than one hundred to one hundred and fifty yards in the direction from which the train was approaching the crossing. There was no evidence tending to show that plaintiff could not have heard the *304ringing of a bell or tbe blowing of a whistle. Plaintiff did not drive on the crossing until he had assured himself by the exercise of his senses of sight and hearing that no train was approaching the crossing.
There was error in the judgment dismissing the action as of nonsuit. Butner v. R. R., 199 N. C., 695, 155 S. E., 601. The judgment must be Reversed.
