VIDEO: 15 minutes of your lunch break

School kids, school traffic and the school train converged again Thursday lunchtime.

A three-engine train with countless railcars rolled slowly through Lac la Biche midway through the noon-hour, much to the dismay of students and motorists. From complaints heard around town, it seems the big train blocked all three crossings within the hamlet at one point. Residents know it's a municipal headache, caused by a federal rail service. Sure is a shame it couldn't be a provincial hot topic in the upcoming election.
