It happened just before 7am on Peninsula at Jacinto Port Boulevard. It appears the train was backing up when it struck the 18-wheeler.
The big rig's trailer then struck a power pole, snapping it. All train traffic has been stopped in the area. Peninsula Road was closed for a while, causing local backups.
There is no word of any injuries.
