The Red Line gave a repeat performance of Tuesday’s awful morning commute, with trains single-tracking and skipping three stations because of a disabled train.
As of 9:22 a.m., trains were no longer single-tracking between Friendship Heights and Van Ness, but residual delays were expected in both directions.
Red Line outbound trains have resumed normal service at Van Ness, Tenleytown & Friendship Heights.

As they were on Tuesday, riders are unhappy.

More Metro issues on red line. Twice this week. Single tracking. Major delays. Full platforms. I should go back to driving.
