A average freight train going 50 mph (80 km/h) will take up to 1.5 miles. That is how long a freight train takes to stop if it collides with a car.
That's going to depend heavily on the weight of the cargo in each car.

A train couldn't go the speed of lightning. At least not with our technology.
Trains go slowly in towns and congested areas, especially during morning rush hour, for safety purposes. It takes a train a long time to stop and the faster it is going, the longer it takes to stop. Though many crossings have lights and crossing "arms" that drop down to stop traffic from crossing the tracks when a train is approaching, they could malfunction or drivers could go through them to try to "beat" a train. If the train is going slow, it helps prevent train-vehicle accidents.

Depending upon the number of cars and load being transported, a train can take up to 150 seconds to stop.
More weight behind the train therefore longer stopping time.
