An Amtrak train traveling through Colorado Sunday struck a person who snuck onto the train tracks in Grand County.
The California Zephyr train was traveling from Chicago to San Francisco Bay on Sunday when it spotted a person on the tracks about two miles west of Granby, according to Amtrak spokesperson Marc Magliari.“There were no reported injuries to the 205 passengers or Amtrak crew members onboard,” Magliari said in an emailed statement to the Denver Post. “The train was delayed by about four hours at the Granby Station before continuing west.
“These incidents can affect everyone involved — those who are injured or die and their families, our train crews and our passengers,” Magliari said. “They also serve as critical reminders about the importance of obeying the law and of exercising extreme caution around railroad tracks and crossings.”
