Thirteen years ago, Don Akins, of Silver Lake, was killed a very similar crash at that same location. His family remembers him as loving husband and father. When they learned this most recent fatality, Akins' wife Jane said she and her daughters couldn't help but feel for the grieving family on a personal level. On Tuesday, Carl Myles, of Topeka, was killed when his truck was struck by an oncoming Union Pacific train as he pulled out of Bettis Asphalt Concrete Supply.
