| Comments | At 2:37pm (local) on September 9th, an Ontario Northland (ONR) passenger train struck the engine of a CN train near North Bay, ON. This occurred when a switch was not turned back to the main line and the passenger train was redirected to the track where the CN engine was waiting for the passenger train to pass. As a result, 60 passengers and 11 rail employees (ONR/CN) were injured (67 minor; 4 serious). Several injuries happened when unsecured luggage in overhead compartments fell onto passengers. |
