CHICAGO, IL – Two teen girls were hurt Thursday morning a collision involving a train in Cook County, reports NBC 5 Chicago.

The accident occurred around 8:30 a.m. near the railroad crossing at the intersection of West 87th Street and South Pulaski Road. This is near the suburbs of Hometown and Evergreen Park.

Police say that an initial two-vehicle crash pushed a silver sedan onto the railroad tracks just as the gate barriers were lowered. The two teen occupants were able to exit the vehicle before it was hit by a Metra train.

Medics transported the two girls to an area hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.

It’s unclear if anyone from the other vehicle was hurt in the crash.

The accident caused significant delays for both motorists and Metra passengers while crews worked at the scene.

A full investigation is underway.
