Not many details can be gleaned from this 'report' of a rail worker becoming 'wedged' on the tracks, and hit by an approaching train. Sad situation nonetheless. One more horrible way ta die.
According to Norfolk Southern: The individual was standing on a freight car that contained steel plates.
A train was not approaching or involved in the incident.

Apparently these are the latest updates on this story, which has become more and more confusing as time goes by. Which again begs the question: Who's telling the truth here, and can we believe what we read, or not
