Officials on Thursday identified a woman hit and killed by a train a day earlier in Simi Valley as Regina Pecora, 24.

Pecora was struck about 9 a.m. Wednesday by a westbound Amtrak train as she was standing on the railroad tracks in the 500 block of Cochran Street, Simi Valley police said. The train eventually stopped just east of Madera Road, police said.

Pecora was pronounced dead at the scene. The exact cause of death is pending results of toxicology tests, said Armando Chavez, a senior deputy Ventura County medical examiner.
