Single-Tracking On Metro's Red Line

WASHINGTON (AP) --Metro's red line trains are sharing a single track near Friendship Heights, but the transit agency says earlier delays have been resolved.

On Wednesday morning, there were significant delays after a track insulator caused smoke near the Dupont Circle station. The problem was discovered about 8:30 a.m. Trains were delayed until late morning.
