Blue Line Riders: Service Disruption between LaSalle and Pulaski due to Fire Dept. Activity. Trains are operating between O'Hare to LaSalle and Forest Park to Pulaski with Shuttle Buses in-between.

Yes the CFD activity, according to news reports given on ABC7 News, is due to a body being found on the tracks at the Illinois Med. Dist. Station. Power was cut between those two points to retrieve it and do initial investigations into how this poor soul died and wound up on the tracks.

Found this on the Summer Schedule Changes for the "L". I wonder if these should've been flip-flopped though...

Brown Line:(As it is currently posted)

Weekday and Saturday mornings:

• From Kimball: The first train to Downtown will leave at 4am instead of 4:30am.

• From Belmont: Due to earlier trips going to the Loop, the first train to Kimball will leave at 4:55am instead of 4:25am.
