JENKINTOWN, PA — A man is dead after he was hit and killed by a train in Montgomery County on Saturday.

The fatality was confirmed by SEPTA, who said in a statement to NBC 10 that the man was hit by a Lansdale-Doylestown Line train around 10:30 a.m. at the Jenkintown-Wyncote Regional Rail Station.

The man was on the tracks when he was hit, SEPTA spokesperson Andrew Busch told the Philadelphia Inquirer, adding SEPTA’s signal systems had been working properly.
