The NYPD said two men were struck by subway trains in two separate incidents Sunday morning. One man has died while the other is expected to survive.

Authorities say the first incident happened on the 'N' line in Astoria around 5:15 a.m. as the 24-year-old man fell onto the elevated tracks. The unidentified man was intoxicated according to police.

The victim was crushed by the train and pronounced dead at the scene.

The MTA suspended service for two hours in both directions as MTA officials and police detectives investigated the incident.

Police said in the second incident, a 46-year-old man was on the tracks just south of the 96th Street station in the Upper West Side around 8:05 a.m.

The conductor of the train told police that he was unable to stop in time before he struck the victim. The unidentified man was taken to St. Luke's Hospital and is in serious but stable condition.

The accident stranded passengers, including churchgoers headed to Palm Sunday services, on the train for about an hour.
