This morning's commute took a deadly turn when a New Jersey Transit train failed to reduce speed while entering a major station in Hoboken. At 8:45 a.m., a commuter train went airborne after hitting a bumper block and plowed into a crowded passenger concourse; the force of the crash caused parts of the ceiling to cave in. At least one person standing on the platform was killed by falling debris.
