Silver Dollar City is one of the better non-Disney / non-Universal theme parks in the United States, so it's a big(ger) deal that something like this happened. According to the statement released by the park, six guests and one employee were taken to the hospital, though I don't believe we've heard any further than that.

Most train rides in theme parks barely travel faster than running speed, so even in a situation like this, the potential for serious injury is somewhat low, IMO.

A law firm based in Springfield is posting on socials asking for victims to reach out. They state that they supposedly represented plaintiffs in a case related to the Ride The Ducks amphibious buses, which were owned by Silver Dollar City's parent company, Herschend, at the time.
