Earlier today, an MBTA commuter rail train hit a flatbed trailer at the Foster Street grade crossing in Littleton, right by the station. The wreckage was still there, along with emergency responders and local news crews, when my train home arrived.

Apparently I give good interview, because WBZ used footage of me for their story:

I must admit, this is a much better way to end up on the evening news than some!

(OTOH, whoever wrote the web copy screwed up my last name. The TV reporter, Lisa Gresci, made sure she got it right.)

Edited to add: the clip is also now on YouTube, courtesy of CBS:
