You heard it here first!

A car has been hit by a train in Gaston. The driver, who had her children in the car, claims that her car stalled on the tracks. Thankfully she and the children all escaped without serious injury. One of the children was hit by the guard rail in the hip and has a big bruise. But that's something minor compared to what could have happened.

Jessica was in the area and took pictures with her cell phone.
