Train collides with tractor-trailer in Johnston
"All of a sudden a big bam, whom, and the train hit the truck with the generator stuck, and then all the cars in the parking lot was a jumbled mess," said Donna Livingston, administrator for the Edgefield County Chamber of Commerce.
A tractor-trailer was crossing the railroad tracks at Lee Street and Calhoun Street when the truck became stuck. A southbound train was unable to stop and plowed into the tractor-trailer, derailing a locomotive and an empty car and sending debris everywhere. Fortunately no one was hurt.
