A fire guts a home in Buffalo's Black Rock neighborhood overnight.

Firefighters were called out to the home on Tonawanda Street just before 2 a.m. on Thursday.

Fire crews spent more than 90 minutes trying to get the fire under control.

Firefighters had to shut down operations shortly after knocking the fire down, in order for an Amtrak train to pass by the home, since it is located near the tracks.

It is unclear what caused the fire. It does not appear that anyone was hurt.

We will have more information as it becomes available.
