Two Metro-North workers are being hailed as heroes after helping save a dog on the tracks that had run off from its owner, and in doing so bringing train service to a standstill while narrowly avoiding tragedy
"We made sure no trains were coming and started running down the tracks, yelling for the dog to come," said Paci.
Finally, Bros and Paci were able to corral the dog, named Pepper, and reunited the pooch with its owner.Pepper's owner thanked the workers but didn't stick around long enough to give his name — perhaps for good reason, as he could have faced a trespassing ticket. Or he could have faced a much more tragic outcome.
