A well-known pastor and his wife were killed Sunday after an Amtrak train crashed into their SUV in North Carolina, officials said. The SUV attempted to go around a lowered crossing arm and cross the tracks just after 2:20 p.m. when an Amtrak train collided with it in Whitakers, about 10 miles north of Rocky Mount, WNCN reported. Eugene Lyons was a pastor in Whitakers, friends told the news station. The Amtrak train 89 was traveling from New York City to Savannah, Ga. when the collision happened. No one aboard the train was injured, but service was temporarily suspended.
