Riders reported seeing a man on the tracks at Gallery Place mid-morning on Friday. He was rescued before a train came and was reportedly unhurt, Metro officials said.
Temperatures are soaring again today and Metro said it plans to have additional staff to check for heat kinks on tracks and to be ready for escalator outages.
Friday is a good day to explore Mars. It’s air conditioned. At least, it’s that way during Mars Day at the Air and Space Museum. Otherwise, stay hydrated this weekend.
Tune in Monday at noon or peruse past discussions about traveling around the Beltway and beyond.
