"Investigation Focuses on Human Error in Manhattan Subway Collision, Service Limited"

TL;DR Summary
The MTA is investigating a collision between two 1 trains near the 96th Street station in NYC, with service disruptions on the 1, 2, and 3 lines expected to last all day. The incident, which caused minor injuries to about 25 people, involved an out-of-service train passing a red signal and colliding with a passenger train. Transit officials and the NTSB are looking into why the empty train failed to stop, while efforts to restore service are underway, complicated by the delicate process of re-railing the derailed cars. Additional buses have been deployed to assist affected commuters.
