The board said in a summary of the event that even though the freight train crew noticed the stopped commuter train and applied the brakes, the CN train collided with the rear of the commuter rail train.

It said the commuter train was pushed about 150 feet before coming to a rest.  

Local paramedics said at the time that injuries were mostly minor. 

The safety board says it will issue a new recommendation during a news conference in Ottawa later this morning, adding that it will highlight a long-standing safety risk in its report.
