Fierce Avalanche Sweeps Down Mountains And Engulfs Passing Train

Title Fierce Avalanche Sweeps Down Mountains And Engulfs Passing Train
Summary Passengers of a train were left shocked when an avalanche crashing down a nearby mountain reached the train tracks and hit the train. While aboard a train in St. Nikolas, Switzerland, on February 17, Kelly McGinnis had a front-row seat to a massive avalanche coming down the mountainside. As the snow came down, it showed no sign of slowing down and eventually hit the train Kelly and her friend were travelling on. Her footage captures snow blasting against the side of the train, the intense impact rattling the windows as the avalanche barrels over them.
