A man is dead today after being hit by a train in Marathon County.
Sheriff's deputies say the Canadian national train conductor didn't even realize he had hit the man.
A motorist passing by the tracks in Dancy discovered the man's body early Wednesday and called police. The last train that passed through had gone by more than 3 hours earlier.
Sheriff's Lieutenant Dale Wisnewski says the 32-year-old man lived nearby and had been drinking. Wisnewski says it appears to be an accidental death.
