More than likely is the inertia switch that is supposed to shut off the engine in case of accident. Since you mention the rail road, that bump may have triggered it. It is in the engine bay, fire wall, passenger side. Re-set it and it should start right up.

Next thing to check would be the Crankshaft positioning sensor. If the truck shuts off when it gets warm, then will start up once it's cooled off, that would be it.

It is a PITA to replace, so hopefully it's the inertia switch.

Let us know what you come up with.

So if it was the inetia switch - had you been in an accident it would have killed fuel pump, to reduce fire hazard, and unlocked all the doors if you had them locked. Hopefully this is the most you will test this feature.
