I was driving and I hit a speed bump which caused my radio to shut off. I continued to drive and I went across the railroad track and it caused my vehicle to shut down. I tried to restart it but it would not. I waited and tried again, it then started but shut back off. It will not start now. If I do get it started it shuts back off.

Such symptoms are usually due to a loose connection somewhere. The bump has loosened some connection to cut off the radio and with it some other power supply. Check all fuses and also grounding points for a start.
