Word on the street around town in Lake O was that a garbage truck was struck by a train at Hastings Road. That would be out between Elmdale and Clarksville but closer to Elmdale. No one mentioned injuries to me.

Ionia County Sherriff had photos on their Facebook page. Train barely struck the very leading edge of the garbage truck. The truck actually stayed on the road and was able to back off. Leading engine had a small dent by the stairs but continued on, actually led Q327 tonight as well.

No injuries.

I'm getting a power outage indication for the east end of Elmdale. Not sure if it's anything significant. That's 106 on the left and a green light for 329 on the right
