Sean Lawson, driver of the truck that hit a low St. Lawrence and Atlantic railroad bridge over Allen Road in Pownal, talks with his company while awaiting a solution to his predicament. He was directed by his GPS take this route from Gray to deliver food and dry goods products to Dollar Tree in Topsham, according to Lawson, and didn’t react in time to the sign indicating a 12’8″ clearance.
