It was a close call with a happy ending for one pup and her owners.
Last month, an engineer on the Danbury Branch of the Metro-North spotted a husky on the tracks and quickly pulled the brake and sounded the horn. She then disappeared under the tracks.
Once the train was stopped, crews found the dog crouched under the train unharmed.
They were able to coax her out and found a collar and ID tag, alerting the owners who lived nearby.
MTA officials say once the passengers found out why the train had been stopped for half an hour, they didn't mind the delay.
