Tell the engineer to pull the brakes and honk the horn
The Conductor has no way of knowing a car is on the tracks (unless the train is pushing backwards, an unlikely condition). The Engineer will use the horn and use emergency brakes as soon as he is aware the car is there. However, the train will almost certainly crush the car, depending upon type and speed of train. A freight train can take more than 1 1/2 miles to stop, and passenger trains can take more than half a mile.
