Have any of you heard anything further about this accident?
http://wfla.com/2017/07/11/1-killed-during-accident-involving-amtrak-train-pickup-truck-in-highlands-co/
The pickup truck driver was killed and one person on the train was injured.
The track is still blocked more than four hours after the accident, with both 91 and 97 stuck somewhere around Winter Haven.
The location appears to be just south of Sebring station at the point where Rt. 98 crosses the tracks in Lorida FL. Happened around 3pm or so I would guess.
All three trains, 92, 91 and 97 are showing in Service Disruption, so presumably things are bad enough that they expect them to be stuck for quite a while.
