GDLK hit pedestrian.

[Andy24]

Grand elk north through Byron Center at 5:26pm, wamx 4002, 4189, 4207 and 23ish cars.

I’d buy the crew wet burritos from the Beltline Bar if I ever was able to see em running on this line.

Grand Elk northbound all stop at 7:11 pm on the 68th St crossing. Looks like it was a train vs car incident from where I am

I am able to hear the train engine from where I am

Never heard of the Elk hitting someone on foot before.

Grand Elk Job 303 northbound @ 8:07pm still stopped. I made that mistake since the winds blew the engine noise a different way

I biked across the pedestrian/bike bridge by M-6 / US-131 junction and saw the headlights of the leading northbound on all dim mode. I also saw a bunch of teens graffiti the walls again

Saw the train northbound earlier. Ran up division to get some Greco's pizza, didn't look left as I crossed 68th. Hope pedestrian is ok. Google maps show tracks still blocked as of 8:25pm.

It appears that the individual who was hit did not survive.

Hearing that it was a resident of one of the local homeless camps.
