"This person is currently in Intensive Care."
Police inquiries into the cause of this crash are ongoing.
However, police do not believe that alcohol was a factor.
It's the same level crossing where nine-time Coast to Coast winner Gurney miraculously walked away with only minor injuries when his top-of-the-range Subaru Outback 4WD smashed into an early-morning passenger train at a railway crossing near Rangiora on September 20, 2011.
He was charged by police with careless use of a motor vehicle and was granted diversion.
There are no warning bells, lights or barriers at the crossing.
But there is a stop sign and warning saying, "Look for trains."
