BALTIMORE — Five passengers were taken to hospitals with non-life-threatening injuries, the Maryland Transit Administration said, after a Baltimore Metro SubwayLink train derailed Monday evening on an above-ground portion of its route.

WBAL-TV reports the accident occurred about 6 p.m. as the train approached the Rogers Avenue platform. One car derailed, remaining upright and connected to the rest of the train. A bus bridge was put in place between the Owings Mills and Penn-North stations Monday night; an MTA Twitter post this morning (Tuesday, Dec. 27) indicates a bus bridge remains in place between the Mondawmin and Reisterstown Plaza stations to accommodate maintenance and repairs.

The MTA says it is investigating the cause of the derailment.
