Lucky for me I didn’t have to go to work today, which would entail riding the Orange Line to Rosslyn.
If I did I’m sure I would of been one of the many angry tweets about this morning’s commute.
If you haven’t heard (of if you haven’t arrived into the office yet), a report of smoke/fire at Metro Center around 8 AM this morning caused delays up and down the line as trains single tracked to get around the mess. The situation at Metro Center has since been resolved but now riders are facing the residual delays, packed cars, and a malfunctioning switch at Foggy Bottom that caused a temporary split on the lines. Luckily the switch malfunction has been cleared as well but I wouldn’t be surprised if commuters are still struggling to get to work as of this posting.
Can you say #MetroFAIL this morning?
