Five people believed to be illegal immigrants stowing away on a train traveling through Merkel from California were taken into custody Wednesday, with more believed to be still at large.
Railroad officials "suspected there were some illegal aliens riding in some containers on the train," said Merkel Police Chief Bob Jones. "I was tied up at the time, but they got some other authorities in there, and they got five illegal aliens caught and expect there to be some more."

The Abilene Reporter News has changed the headline on this web site article to “Train stowaways taken into custody in Merkeline”. It was really a mess prior to me “PhotoShop”ing the original.
