Significant delays are in store for Monday commuters with Metrorail pulling more than half of its rail fleet out of service as it continues to investigate last week’s Blue Line derailment.

Trains will run every 30 minutes and be limited to six cars each of Metro’s older models.
Riders can expect long wait times and crowding during peak hours, and should seek alternatives to Metrorail including buses if possible.
