Alert: Red line cancelled on Wednesday, June 26th due to maintenance vehicle derailment
Update: June 26, 2024 7:15 am
Crews moved our maintenance vehicle out of the way last night.
The Red Line returned to service when we opened this morning.
We apologize for the inconvenience it caused and we thank our riders for their patience.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
At about 3:30am on Wednesday, June 26, 2024, a BART track maintenance vehicle derailed near 19th Street/Oakland Station blocking one set of tracks.
No BART stations are closed but the Red Line is cancelled. We anticipate the Red Line to be cancelled all day but back in service tomorrow. Red line trains will show as cancelled in real time departures and the Trip Planner.
- San Francisco bound passengers coming from the Richmond direction who would normally take a Red Line train should take an Orange Line Berryessa train and transfer to a Yellow Line San Francisco train at MacArthur Station.
- Millbrae riders should take the Yellow Line.
- Orange Line trains coming from Richmond will need to divert to West Oakland after 12th St. Station and then turn back towards the Berryessa direction. So they will run: 12th St, West Oakland, Lake Merritt, and so on. Orange Line trains coming from Berryessa don’t need to do this.
- Platform 2 at 19th Street/Oakland Station is closed and trains may be stopping at a different platform that usual at 12th and 19th St stations.
The incident is not causing major delays.
