At least five people are dead and dozens are injured after a commuter train derailed Sunday morning in the Bronx borough of New York City only minutes before its expected arrival in Midtown Manhattan.

Between two rivers: The Hudson River is on the right and the Harlem River is on the left - the train derailed on a narrow peninsula between them

Almost in the water: The Hudson River can be seen in the background of the train, which stopped just short of the East River after derailing

Like toy cars: Train cars were scattered across the tracks and into the brush like toys
