Just learned about this...

I heard on the radio that the tree crashed onto the VIA engine. The crew was OK but shaken up. The train limped into Belleville station and has obviously caused delays.

A grim reminder that Mother Nature is not to be trifled with.

Sounds like they need to clear some of their right-of-way.
