The agency tweeted at 5:24 p.m. on Wednesday that the southbound No. 412 train collided with a car on the tracks. Caltrain officials first tweeted three minutes later that "initial reports" indicated there were no injuries. As of 7:35 p.m., five trains were delayed at least 20 minutes, with the 412 running 90 minutes behind schedule.


As of 6:17 p.m., the train was heading back to the San Francisco station at 4th and King streets.
