UPDATE: The pole did in fact hit the front of a Red Line train, reports WUSA9. The Red Line is single tracking between Rhode Island Avenue and New York Avenue this afternoon after a utility pole fell onto the tracks. Initially, D.C. Fire and EMS reported that the pole had fallen on top of a train, but later said that was not the case. Passengers were offloaded at New York Avenue while the situation was investigated, and the incident has caused some major crowding at stations downtown, like Metro Center — Red Line commuters might want to think about heading to a happy hour for a little bit until the issue blows over. It’s not yet clear whether today’s high winds were the reason the pole fell.
