"It was just a weird, freak accident that unfortunately caused injuries to two people," police Lt. Dan Brady said. "It wasn't a big explosion but was definitely enough to scare everyone who was in that cab of the train."
The explosion also burnt a hole in the train seat and the ride was temporarily shut down. The girl was taken to the Arnold Palmer Hospital for Children with mild to moderate burns on the right side of her face.
The Hogwarts Express opened in summer 2014. It combines "powerful storytelling, live special effects, lifelike animation and technology to take riders on the journey of a lifetime," the park says.
