    One man is in the hospital following a Wednesday train crash in Huntley.
    The wreck happened around 7:50 p.m. on Wednesday near Northern Avenue, just west of Highway 312 in Huntley, when a four car train hit a five car train.
    One of the cars got stuck on the nose of the engine and Montana Rail Link spokesperson Linda Frost says that one employee suffered minor leg injuries and was taken to the hospital.
    We're told one of the trains was carrying grains and both were cleared before 1:00 a.m. on Thursday.
