A recent federal report sheds light on the communication breakdown that led to the collision of two out-of-service subway trains in New York City earlier this month. According to the report released by the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB), a worker guiding one of the trains lost radio contact with the driver before the crash occurred.
The incident took place near the 96th Street station on Manhattan's Upper West Side, derailing both trains and resulting in minor injuries to approximately 25 individuals. While the report does not identify the exact cause of the collision, it outlines the events leading up to the incident, as the federal investigation is still ongoing.
