A train has derailed at Enfield station in London before crashing into a platform injuring two people.
Witnesses at the overground station said the train crashed through barriers, with people fleeing the platform in terror.
Images from the scene show the train crushed against the station wall, with London Fire Brigade at the scene.
They tweeted: "Firefighters have attended a derailed train at #Enfield Town station this morning. Crews carried out a systematic search of the train to ensure no one was trapped. Two people have been treated for minor injuries by @Ldn_Ambulance crews."

A worker from a nearby sorting office said he was "shocked" by the sight of the crashed train at Enfield station but added the situation "seemed very much in control".
Gary Spencer said he did not hear the crash but walked over to the station from his workplace after seeing dozens of emergency services vehicles rushing to the scene.
"(There was) initially some shock but more importantly (I was hoping) that there were no casualties," the 37-year-old told the PA news agency.
"I have never known a train to fail stopping at the end of the line... if the metal steel was not behind the buffer I'm confident the train would have damaged the building.
"The situation seemed very much in control."
Around 50 people were evacuated following the morning crash.
Station staff helped passengers off the train before London Fire Brigade attended, with station commander Jim O'Neill saying: "The train had hit the buffers at the station, which is at the end of the line, and gone up over the top of them.
"Firefighters carried out a systematic search of the train to ensure there were no further people on board.
"Crews assisted station staff to make the scene safe and a recovery operation will now be carried out."
Three fire engines and two fire rescue units rushed to the scene at around 8.30am and left after checking the train about an hour later, a spokesman said.
The train left Liverpool Street at around 7.45am and hit the barriers at around 8.15am.
As a result of the crash, Overground services have been suspended between Enfield Town and Edmonton Green, Network Rail said.
A resident who lives in a flat overlooking the station said his family was "scared" when they were awoken by the loud bang of the crash and looked out the window to see the derailed train.
Another man who worked nearby described hearing the huge "volume of fire engines and ambulances at the scene" and went to see what happened.
One commuter also told of the "chaos" when he arrived at Enfield Town and was forced to try and catch a train from another station.
Kyel Matin added: "Fortunately it didn't go through the station window."
The London Ambulance Service said a hazardous materials team was dispatched and the two injured people were not taken to hospital.
A spokesman said: "We were called this morning to reports of a train derailed at Enfield Town railway station.
"We sent a number of resources to the scene, including from London Ambulance Service Hazardous Area Response Team and The London Ambulance Service Emergency Planning and Resilience Officers tactical advisors.
"Two people were assessed at the scene for minor injuries, but they were not taken to hospital."
Network Rail said the service is not expected to resume as it should until 3pm this afternoon.
A spokesman said: "An operating incident at Enfield Town means no trains will run between Edmonton Green and Enfield Town.
"Trains will continue to run as normal between London Liverpool Street and Edmonton Green before taking a diversion to terminate at/restart at Cheshunt. We expect this to continue until approximately 3pm."
