FAIRPORT, N.Y. — There is new video of a train hitting a car on Main Street in the Village of Fairport on Wednesday night. The crash happened just after 7 p.m. and no one was injured.

The video shows the driver taking a wrong turn onto the tracks. About 90 seconds later, a freight train crashes into the stuck car. Fairport resident Bill Evans happened to be driving by moments before the crash. He says his training as a firefighter helped to get the man to safety, helping him out of the car and get a safe distance away before a train came through, demolishing the vehicle and dragging it down the tracks.

“Basically, 43 years as a firefighter and 45 years with 911 helped me in the right place at the right place at the right time,” Evans said Thursday.

He added: “We were very fortunate. He is a very lucky young man, and I was lucky to be where I was last night to assist.”

Fairport Police Chief Matt Barnes says the train sent the car three quarters of a mile down the tracks after being hit. The train track in Fairport is shut down while police conduct the investigation into what happened.
