A caller to radio station 6PR said the truck had broken through a wire guard rail and travelled up the the side of a gully to come to rest at an angle with the driver’s side wheel resting on the railway line.
”The driver was removed from the cabin of the truck, they have got him out. Not long after a train was coming northbound,” Bob said.
Another caller has reported traffic backed up to Rowley Road.
