Posted on March 27th, 2008 by The SUBWAYblogger in This just in

Two east bound trains entering the Jamaica Queens station collided when apparently one of them derailed, and hit the other train.

Apparently, one of the trains had two cars derail, which then bumped a neighboring train.

The LIRR is calling the incident a minor/low impact derailment.  There are a reported 20 minor injuries, and no major injuries.

The trains were traveling at a very slow speed when the incident occured.
