According to scanner traffic, a box truck being pulled by the tow truck was struck by a train near Citywide Insulation on Third Avenue West in Shakopee.

rreschran Posted December 17, 2019 Share Posted December 17, 2019 In industrial areas where there are no drop-down rail crossing guards, it's the tower's decision to stop, look and listen especially when loaded. I'm happy to hear that the tow operator wasn't injured. R. Quote Randall C. Resch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
