Police Chief Stephen Janik said the probe into the freak accident, which occurred shortly before 5 a.m. Thursday, is being handled by Pan Am police.

The chief said the victim, a Mechanicville man, was working near one of those switch boxes when he apparently slipped on ice and one of his hands ended up on the track and was run over by the steel wheel of the slowly approaching train.
