NEW YORK (AP) - The Long Island Railroad has canceled several Monday morning rush hour trains due to a minor train derailment.

A LIRR spokesman said the non-passenger train was traveling through the West Side Yard in Manhattan Saturday night when two cars derailed, causing damage to the tracks. The agency said a worker on the train reported back pain.

The cause of the derailment is under investigation.
