The most severe injury appeared to be a possible broken leg; no injuries were life-threatening, Gov. Andrew Cuomo said. He said Brooklyn's Atlantic Terminal suffered minor damage, but the afternoon commute would not be affected.
"A broken leg is not good, but we've been through situations where we've had worse," Cuomo said.
FDNY Deputy Assistant Chief Daniel Donoghue said more than 600 people were on the train when it smashed through the last bumper and crashed into a small room at the end of the track. He put the injury total at 76; the Fire Department later tweeted that 103 people were hurt.
