Metro: A Series of Unfortunate Events
Posted By dc_paulo On January 31, 2007 @ 11:03 am In Metro | Comments Disabled
Remember when I got all temporally mixed up and mistakenly said “yesterday” yesterday [2] about a Red Line track fire at Farragut North? Now I can say it and be correct: Fire Reported Inside Farragut North Metro Station. [3] Third time since last Friday, and the Metro’s closed between Metro Center and Dupont Circle. As you can see from the alert ticker screenshot above, delays are affecting all lines in both directions, possibly due also to the reports of smoke at West Falls Church and the Braddock Rd Metro bomb scare [4]. Not to mention the Farragut Square bus fire [5]. All in one morning.
Not a good day or a good week for WMATA. Me, I think I’m walking to work today.
