On Wednesday morning, a railroad crossing arm came down on a bus there.

Dietrich Bus Service in Valley City, Safety Specialist,  Brian Yanish, says the driver of the empty school bus had reported the incident to Dietrich’s location manager in Jamestown. The incident remains under investigation by Dietrich Bus Service.

Yanish adds,  when there are students on the bus, the bus doesn’t travel over the railroad tracks on 3rd Street Southeast.

BNSF says, there was no report of a signal malfunction with the crossing arm on Wednesday.

The railroad reviewed the signal and found it was working as intended on Wednesday.

The crossing was tested Friday and workers confirmed the signal was working as it should.
