Local 718 reports two injuries in the crash around 10:50 p.m. near the firehouse at 560 Huntington Ave.

D'Amico reports it looks like the SUV driver attempted to make a left turn in front of the trolley.

E Line service is, of course, suspended until after the victims are extricated and the investigation completed.

No left

Edit: This is actually the break in median (fire house emergency access to Huntington WB) with the no left turn sign.

There isnt even a left turn

There isnt even a left turn you can make there, because the fire house is right there. Theres a no U turn sign there. http://flic.kr/p/aDWD2f

SUV Driver Forgot Rule #1 of Train/Car Accidents

The train always wins.

If you can call it winning ...

The train won, took out some

The train won, took out some windows and the front tire on the car. As a frequent user of the E line, its always nice to see someone attack it, makes up for the time Ive spent waiting for an inbound train when I watch 3 go outbound.
