It appears today's M-PCSB (Pocatello-Silver Bow) struck a vehicle at the Buxton grade crossing just a couple miles south of Silver Bow. I heard the train depart Dillon at usual a.m. time, but while taking osmeone to the airport noticed (along with flashing red lights) that the train was facing northbound and stopped across the grade crossing. On way back south, saw damaged front end on lead unit (a Dash 9, ... sorry no #, driving company rig and no camera) and a dump truck parked at a wierd angle. As for damage, front handrails were mangled, but I couldn't see most of the pilot for the crowd of "investigators." Unfortunately, don't have time nor do I want to spend personal gas to take my camera back up to Silver Bow. If anyone knows actual details, they would be appreciated.
