A vehicle collided with an eastbound light rail train shortly after noon Monday at University and Prior avenues in St. Paul.

A Metro Transit spokesman said the Green Line train had the right of way. The driver of the car was cited for failure to obey traffic devices, the spokesman said.

Two train passengers were taken to the hospital with back pain.

Regular train service had been restored by Monday afternoon.
