The Cherokee County Coroner's Office reports a North Carolina man died when he was struck by a train just before 1AM Thursday in Gaffney. 55-year-old Mark Channing Cash, of Shelby, died at the scene.
Operators on board the train said Cash was lying on the tracks and would not move despite repeated blows of the horn. An autopsy is scheduled as the Coroner's Office investigation continues into the death.
