Transit officials say two cars jumped the tracks Sunday north of a station near Central Park. No one was seriously injured.

Firefighters removed the passengers from the tunnel in about an hour by using a "rescue train." Two people reported minor injuries but didn't require treatment.

Some train service had to be rerouted.
