Traffic patterns have reopened after an overnight collision involving a train.

“At approximately 11:15 p.m. Thursday evening, a semi-truck was struck by a train at the Nicholas Street railroad crossing, located just west of the U.S. 31W Bypass ramp and its intersection with U.S. 62,” said Elizabethtown Police Department Public Information Officer Chris Denham. 

No injuries were reported, but the crash blocked several railroad crossings in Elizabethtown.

“Impacted crossings include East Poplar Street, East Dixie Avenue just south of the Hardin County Justice Center, and Nicholas Street,” Denham said.

The crossings were closed for more than five hours.
