Disabled BART train temporarily delays service on Saturday
A disabled train outside of the BART West Oakland station temporarily delayed travel between San Francisco International Airport and East Bay stations on Saturday.
BART alerted riders on the social media platform X around 4 p.m. that the Red line was cancelled due to the delay. The Green and Blue lines were diverted to MacArthur Station. The delay was caused by earlier equipment problems on a train.
According to BART’s media line, around 5:27 p.m., the disabled train was taken out of service and the transit agency was working on restoring regular service to the Red, Green and Blue lines. Around 5:30 p.m., BART posted on X that Green and Blue line service was restored.
Around the same time, BART reported that trains were not stopping at 24th St. Mission due to police activity. Minutes later, service was restored to 24th St. and Mission.
