Froberg was traveling on Center Line Road in Industrial Township about a half-hour northwest of Duluth when he failed to stop at a rail crossing stop sign and his truck was struck broadside by the northbound train, the St. Louis County Sheriff's Office said. No one else was injured.
Responding agencies included the Industrial Township and Grand Lake fire departments, the St. Louis County Rescue Squad and Canadian National.
