The Falls Bridge and part of Kelly Drive are closed on Friday morning for Philadelphia police and fire activity at the scene of a train fire that broke out Thursday.
Images from Chopper 3 showed a fire hose running across the Falls Bridge around 6:30 a.m., feeding a fire truck near the train tracks along the Schuylkill River.

The truck was spraying water on a charred railcar that was seen on fire on Thursday afternoon. The fire in the Conrail rail car, a trash car, was brought under control around 4 p.m. Thursday.
It’s possible the blaze rekindled overnight and crews needed to spray more water on the train car.
Kelly Drive is closed between the Falls Bridge and Ridge Avenue.
