Cement Truck Stuck on Tracks, End of Yonah Homer

BANKS COUNTY, Ga. – Banks County DNR, Sheriffs, and Hall County Sheriffs, as well as GSP, arrived at the crossing on the Hall County end of Yonah Homer Road to find a full cement truck stuck on the tracks.

Calls were made to alert the railway operators but as of 1.00 p.m., Friday July 8, the truck is still parked under the railroad crossing barriers.

The trailer failed to make clearance after the landing gear, at full height, scraped the significant hump.

Sheriffs are directing traffic and multiple citizens have stopped to attempt to help.
