Dozens injured after commuter train derails at Chicago airport
An eight-car commuter train derails at Chicago's O'Hare International Airport, injuring 32 people on board
More than 30 people have been injured when a train derailed at Chicago’s O’Hare International Airport early this morning, after it failed to stop at an underground station at one of the busiest airports in the United States. The eight-car commuter train came off the tracks at approximately 2:50 am. It jumped 10 feet off the rails, crossed a platform and began to climb an escalator.
Investigations as to why the train failed to stop are ongoing. However, Chicago Transit Authority (CTA) spokesman Brian Steele said it is likely that the train was travelling at a speed that was "higher than normal"............
