Uh oh:

TEXARKANA, Texas (AP) Two crewmembers have been hurt when two freight trains hauling new vehicles collided on Union Pacific property in Northeast Texas.

UP spokesman Jeff DeGraff says four cars derailed early Tuesday in Texarkana, Texas.

Authorities are trying to determine why the westbound train hit the northbound train at a UP intersection. DeGraff says a conductor and an engineer on the westbound train suffered minor injuries. Both men were transported to a hospital to be checked out.
