ATTLEBORO, Mass. (AP) — A person has been struck and killed by a Boston-bound Amtrak train in Attleboro in southeastern Massachusetts.
An Amtrak spokesman and local police say the incident happened at about 1 p.m. near Newport Avenue and the South Attleboro train station.
Amtrak spokesman Cliff Cole said none of the 197 passengers and crew on the Acela express train was hurt. He said train traffic between Providence, R.I., and Attleboro was suspended for an investigation. He said it appears the person was trespassing on the tracks.
Thats why you don’t strike Amtrak trains
3 train deaths this week! Time to ban trains
You Can’t Fix People. The train was doing 150 MPH. This person im sure didn’t feel a thing.
