WMSC says this happened while the person responsible for vehicle movement in the yard was watching a movie trailer. That's a big violation of WMATA's no electronics policy.
Here are the movie trailers that came out that week:

Spiral
The Jesus Rolls
Guns Akimbo
Fast and Furious 9
Minions: The Rise of Gru
Mulan
The Kindness of Strangers
Impractical Jokers: The Movie
No Time To Die
Black Widow
Top Gun: Maverick
What if the Minions trailer contributed to this crash?
WMSC officials say they didn't have a damage estimate but would find out.

Gimme your best D.C. transit/transportation-themed Valentine's Day poems.
Roses are Red
I really like guava
My love for you is eternal
Just like getting lost in L'Enfant Plaza
Rose are red
The Blue Line is blue
The Maryland Transit Administration's Purple Line
Might be done by 2032

MD Transportation Secretary Paul Wiedefeld isn't here today. Michael Goldman filling in.

Board starts with a moment of silence for Bob Cunningham.

GM Randy Clarke says WMATA is taking care of his family, but the GoFundMe has raised $185,000 that will help pay for his kids college among other things. Clarke thanks the community for their thoughts and generosity. Image
Metro has set up town halls to talk about security and wellness for employees. Clarke says the staff is resilient, but angry at the gun violence in America.

Second time in two weeks that I’ve been on a Green Line train where teens have broken into back cab of older trains and turned off the lights.

Operator at L’Enfant “please stop playing with the lights.”
Another lights off train at L’Enfant! What is up today?! ImageImage
It’s like a tug of war between operator and whoever is at back cab. Lights on. Lights off. Lights on. Lights off.
