4:02 am
the east and westbound sides. so watch out for that. that should be out there until about 5:00 this morning. also construction on 95. southbound around street road, that exit will be closed until about 5:00. mass transit not a problem this were mooing. no problems or delays for septa, patco, dart and new jersey transit. >> someone did have a delay. a woman in montgomery county is probably still shaking after watching a train obliterate the car she had just gotten out of. this was the scene near fourth and depot streets in bridgeport. the woman was trying to cross the train tracks when her car stalled. she got out of the car, was on the phone with aaa when a freight train came along and, well, you see the results here. no one was hurt thankfully. the car was towed away and the train kept moving.
4:03 am
