At least 13 people were hurt when an LIRR train with about 100 passengers on board derailed in Queens Thursday morning, officials and sources said.

All eight cars of the passenger train derailed just east of the Jamaica Station complex at 175th Street and 95th Avenue around 11:12 a.m., according to sources and the FDNY.

Those hurt suffered leg and back injuries, sources said.

Two of the passengers suffered serious injuries, but most of the injuries were minor and all were expected to fully recover, MTA officials said.

The derailment was expected to impact the Thursday evening and Friday morning rush hours, MTA Chair Janno Lieber said at a press briefing on the incident.
