Two trains collided head-on outside the Costa Rican capital San Jose, leaving dozens of people injured.
At least 77 people were injured, according to emergency workers, and some local media outlets said the crash injured nearly 245 people. But no deaths were reported.
The authorities did not immediately indicate what caused the crash, but initial evidence "points to human error," rail authority chief Guillermo Santana said.
"We will spare no resources in getting to the bottom of this," he told journalists.
The collision occurred in the western suburb of Pavas on Friday on a curve about 300 meters from Costa Rica's National Stadium west of downtown San Jose.
