A semi in Emerson didn't quite make the cut after attempting to clear an underpass Thursday afternoon. The semi-trailer became stuck under a train trestle on Main St. in Emerson.

RCMP say it was a case of driver error because the trailer was too tall for the amount of clearance there. Police note there is an alternate route for large trucks in Emerson and the driver neglected to take that route.

They add CN Rail checked out the bridge and determined there was no serious damage, so it can remain in service.
