It happened on the train tracks on Barrow Street near Mountain Highway.

When it happened, the train was moving slowly and blaring its horn while passing along this area — where access to business parking lots cross the train tracks.

There seems to be no injuries.

Fire crews and ambulances were seen at the scene.

CityNews has reached out to the police for more information.
