Four CSX employees were struck by a motor vehicle at a grade crossing on Monday and taken to a hospital for treatment. The incident occurred at Bradner, about 20 miles south of Toledo.
Trains magazine Newswire reported that the the employees were part of a rail gang that was in the process of closing the crossing at the time of the incident.
According to railroad spokeswoman Carla Groleau, the three employees were struck and the fourth was injured in the incident, which occurred just before noon.
The Fostoria Times Review reported that the driver drove around two sets of barricades and into the construction zone before striking a utility pole, an unoccupied CSX truck, and the workers.
