A deadly Metro-North train derailment in New York has killed four people and wounded more than 60 others.

According to The Hartford Courant, the accident -- which happened on a part of the line between The Bronx and Westchester County -- could force the railroad to delay its trains for over a week. The train, which was Manhattan-bound, was derailed after it curved a sharp turn in the Bronx.

Service was suspended on the railroad's Hudson line, which serves 26,000 commuters on an average weekday, between the village of Tarrytown and Manhattan's Grand Central Terminal, according to the state's Metropolitan Transportation Authority, the parent company of Metro-North.

Today, as well, the so-called "black box" from the train has been released to the public, and further analysis will be conducted to determine the real cause of the derailment, according to NBC News. MTA spokeswoman Marjorie Anders told NBC New York that the curve where the train derailed is in a slow-speed area, where the limit is 30 mph. The area just before the curve is a 70 mph limit, according to Anders. The black box should be able to tell how fast the train was traveling, she said. The data recorder should also show whether its brakes did, in fact, fail.

Yet, the MTA is saying that even though there were a few people killed, and many more injured, this accident isn't as bad as it could have been, because the train was only about half-full. "On a workday, fully occupied, it would have been a tremendous disaster," Fire Commissioner Salvatore Joseph Cassano told reporters at the scene.

Our thoughts are with the families of the victims and the injured.
