Red Liners, you’ve been through a lot the past year. But there’s a light at the end of the tunnel … assuming you look past the post-Election Day crash at the Woodley Park station.

This weekend was the final weekend for NewYoFla-related track work on the Red Line. In preparation for the opening of the New York Avenue-Florida Avenue-Gallaudet University metrorail station, the Red Line had been closed or single tracked through the area of the new station between Union Station and Rhode Island Avenue on several occasions. But that is no more. The in-fill station is set to open on Saturday. After many headaches, it seems that scheduled Red Line headaches may be coming to a close.

Then next month, two new stations are set to open on the Blue Line extension in Prince George’s County.
