MACEDON (AP) -- Authorities say no one has been injured after a car stuck on railroad tracks outside Rochester was hit by an Amtrak passenger train, splitting the vehicle in half and pushing it nearly a mile down the tracks.
Amtrak officials tell local media outlets that the train hit the car around 8 p.m. Thursday in the Wayne County town of Macedon, about 15 miles east of Rochester.
Police say the car's driver and his passengers got out of the car shortly before the train hit the vehicle.
No one aboard the train was injured. The passengers were taken by bus to Rochester's Amtrak station.
