East Avenue was a dead end.

It's going to be just north of that intersection.
00:03
A vehicle went through the dead end and got struck by a freight train.
00:06
Apparently, this happened about 30 min ago and nobody called us to know.
00:10
I called Brookfield who advised the victim was transported to a hospital.
00:13
No current condition listed, but they advised that they were in somewhat okay condition.
00:20
Oh, this is wonderful.
00:21
All right, show me 76 .
00:22
This should be anywhere between 30 or 40 min ETA.
00:26
Maybe more.
00:28
Brookfield, they got multiple units there.
00:30
I'm gonna call BNSF back too because they just called us within the last 2 min and Brookfield never did.
00:38
Yeah, 13 and county, let's reframe that.
00:39
It's gonna be a 45-minute ETA now.

Hey, can you start making your way over to Brookfield with Metro 13? And once you guys get there, just figure out what's going on.
02:06
If Brookfield's going to take primary and if they need any assistance with traffic control or anything.

Absolutely, I'm being routed from Elgin.
02:17

02:31
They advised a tow truck got on scene about 10 min ago.
02:33
As of right now, the vehicle is still on the track, so they're working on getting that off.
