An SUV was totaled after being crushed by a freight train Saturday night in Yolo County.
Authorities say two people were inside the SUV at County Road 32A and County Road 105 when the vehicle became stuck on the tracks. The driver and his wife got out of the car and called 911 dispatchers, who notified the conductor of an oncoming train of the hazard.
The 140-car train was a half-mile away from the vehicle at that point and attempted to slow down, but the train needs a full mile to come to a complete stop.
The train smashed into the SUV, sending it up in flames.
Nobody was hurt in the incident.
