WINDSOR, Va. — Route 258/Windsor Boulevard was expected to stay closed Monday night into Tuesday after a crash involving a tractor-trailer and a train.

A little before 2 p.m. Monday, Virginia State Police said a train smashed a tractor-trailer after it got stuck on the tracks. The crash caused the tractor-trailer to go up in flames. The train continued to push the truck into a ditch along the track.

VDOT said they were working with other agencies to reopen the roadway but closures would likely last overnight. Drivers are encouraged to find other routes.

Police did not provide any information about potential injuries.

Troopers said they are investigating.
