SAN FRANCISCO - Several dozen people were injured when two San Francisco light-rail trains collided Saturday afternoon, authorities said.
Forty-four people were taken to hospitals — three with what appeared to be severe injuries — when a San Francisco Municipal Railway train rear-ended another near a boarding platform about 2:30 p.m., officials said.
"This is probably one of the largest casualty incidents in recent years (in San Francisco)," said Pat Gardner, a deputy chief with the San Francisco Fire Department. Gardner said about 40 rescue workers were at the scene.
