A truck driver has died after the B-double he was driving plunged off a highway onto train tracks in Western Victoria this morning.
Just before 4am, emergency services were called to the Western Highway near the Midland Highway overpass at Wendouree, near Ballarat.
Police said it appeared the truck driver had lost control on the highway and crashed through guardrails, careening into a culvert where the Ballarat-Maryborough railway line runs under the overpass.
