A victim is taken from the Dekalb subway station on Flatbush Avenue in the Brooklyn borough of New York Tuesday night. A New York City subway train jumped the tracks in Brooklyn Tuesday night, sending scores of passengers skidding along the floors of their cars. As many as 90 people were injured.
Passengers give their account of the accident.
Three of the passengers were injured seriously. Authorities said the accident could have been worse, but the train was going at a slow speed. Heads were injured and they bounced back and forth. Transit officials initially feared the accident would create a commuter crunch during rush hour in the city this morning. All service in Brooklyn on several lines had been suspended Tuesday night, but full service resumed a little before 6 a.m. this morning.
