MEXICO CITY, Mexico (CNN) -- At least 50 people were injured late Saturday night when two trains collided just outside Mexico City, authorities said.

The cabin of one train collided with the back of another train that was stuck because of technical problems, officials said.

The injuries were not severe and no deaths were reported, according to officials.

The wreck happened between the San Rafael and Lecheria stations, which run from Buenavista to Cuautitlan, authorities said.
