Three people were hit by Amtrak trains this weekend in the Philadelphia region.
One person died Sunday after being hit a New York-bound train at Torresdale Station around 7:30 p.m. More than 290 people were abroad the train at the time of the accident. No additional injuries were reported, Amtrak said.
Earlier on Sunday, a different person was hit at the Merion station. That victim was conscious when first responders arrived, officials said.
The platform was taped off, but trains still serviced the stop.
On Saturday, a teen heading to the Made in America festival was grazed by an Amtrak train in Malvern. Police said large groups of people heading to Center City were rushing to get onto the platform when the victim was struck.
Police increased patrols following the incident.
