Passengers sit in dark on Blue Line train after derailment
Trapped passengers sit in dark on a Blue Line train after it derailed in Washington D.C yesterday, injuring one person.
The derailment happened just before 5 pm yesterday on a Blue Line train in the tunnel between Rosslyn and Arlington Cemetery stations.
Stranded passengers were filmed sitting in a pitch-black carriage as emergency services responded to the scene.
Arlington Fire and EMS said one person was taken from the scene to hospital in a "stable condition".
The service has since been suspended between Pentagon and Foggy Bottom with shuttle buses replacing the service.
