3 killed by Amtrak Train in Flora, MS.

Unread post by Jochs »

A man and his two children were killed yesterday when their vehicle was struck by an Amtrak train.
Based on the news story, it appears the father ignored the crossing signals and drove into the path of the train.
It looks like there were no gates at the crossing, only flashers/crossbucks.
