No one was injured when a Metrolink train stuck a vehicle in Newhall Monday night.

The crash happened around 8:45 p.m. at the intersection of Railroad Avenue and Newhall Avenue. The driver of a Jeep Grand Cherokee reportedly made a right turn onto a handicap ramp and jumped out of the vehicle before the train smashed into it.

According to Metrolink’s twitter account the AV Line 221 to Lancaster is delayed up to an hour tonight due to the crash.

    That road is very confusing !

  2. Wow I saw that the people got out fast thank god they are fine

  3. Most people know not to stop on tracks or too close to tracks in front of you, but all the time I see cars stopping with the rear wheels on or much too close to tracks. Remember to leave enough space AFTER you’ve crossed too folks! Glad everyone seems to be OK here.

  4. I was confused thinking it hit someone thank god no one was injured…

  5. Saamie Shrum says:

  6. Jim Oge Jr says:

    Scary past by it also. Good everyone was fine.

  7. Lisa Cook says:

    Maybe the car stalled or the owners just want a new car so they are looking to collect from the insurance. Whatever the case, I concur Thank God NO One was injured!!
