Caltrain will be hosting an emergency preparedness drill on the tracks of the train station in Gilroy on Dec. 6 from 7:30 a.m. until noon, according to a press release from Caltrain. Â Â
Every year, Caltrain holds a drill in collaboration with local public safety agencies to train for a response to a rain emergency. Police and fire personnel and vehicles with lights and occasional sirens will be present during the drill.
There will be no disruption to traffic or train service during the drill, since trains don’t serve Gilroy on weekends, the press release states. Members of the public will be prohibited from entering the area where the drill is taking place.
