About 125 people have been injured, at least 13 of them seriously, when two passenger trains collided in the Amsterdam area, Dutch officials say.

They say the accident happened near Sloterdijk, to the west of the capital.

Neither train was derailed, and footage from the scene appeared to show minor damage.

The injured were taken to hospital by ambulance. It was not immediately known what caused the head-on collision on Saturday evening.

The crash involving an inter-city train and a local stopping service happened at about 18:30 local time (16:30 GMT).
