Canney was pronounced dead at the scene, police said. His truck — a 2015 GMC — was a total loss after the collision.

The incident is still under investigation as of Monday, the district attorney’s office said.

This is the second MBTA commuter rail ****** in four days that has resulted in a fatality.

On Wednesday, April 30, a woman was killed after she drove an SUV onto Commuter Rail train tracks in Abington. The SUV collided with the train, according to authorities.
