Two Red Line metro trains collided between Fort Totten and Takoma Park. Dozens were injured and at least four people were killed, said Mayor Adrian Fenty.
How did this happen?
According to Metro spokewoman Lisa Farbstein, the two trains were both headed in the same direction. One rear-ended the other. The female operator of the trailing train died.
“Obviously something went terribly wrong for two trains to be on the same track,” Farbstein said.
Sure put a damper on my evening commute.
