WYOMING, Mich.  — A train is moving again in Wyoming, after stalling on the tracks near 36th Street SW and Clay Avenue.

Kent County Dispatch Authority told FOX 17 around 5:55 p.m. Wednesday motorists should avoid 36th Street SW near Clay Avenue. That was before the situation was resolved.

Traffic began backing up a little after 5 p.m. on 36th Street. Dispatcher says engineers were summoned to the scene to correct the unspecified mechanical problem.

Meanwhile, traffic was backing up on 36th Street past US-131.

Dispatchers say the train is owned by Grand Elk Road.
