38-year-old woman died after being hit by train in Osborne Village early Monday: Winnipeg police
The woman had left a passenger train when she was hit by a freight train travelling in the opposite direction, police said.
The article was updated, she was just walking on the tracks rather than having just left a passenger train.
That makes more sense, since Osborne Village is some distance from the Via station.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
