A subway train has suddenly derailed near a children's playground in the Chilean capital Santiago. It smashed parked vehicles and collided into a nearby apartment building.

A subway train has suddenly derailed near a children's playground in the Chilean capital Santiago. 



The Metro train was not in service at the time as it made its way to an above ground storage facility. No injuries were immediately reported.

But local media reports say the conductor was in a "state of shock" and taken in for a check up.

Residents of the damaged apartment building say it was a miracle nobody was hurt, especially considering the playground.

The out of service train was approaching a Metro warehouse when it continued beyond the tracks.

An investigation is underway.
