After 2 Days Down, Gold Line Resumes Normal Service Saturday Morning

Repairs to the damaged overhead wires in South Pasadena have been completed, and the Metro Gold Line will resume regularly scheduled service with start of service on Saturday.

The cause of the incident is under investigation.

The trouble began late Wednesday night when wire damage caused a southbound Gold Line train to halt in South Pasadena.

Throughout Thursday and all day Friday, trains shared one track between Fillmore Station and Southwest Museum Station to allow repair crews to continue working. Bus shuttles were used to supplement southbound train service from Highland Park Station to Union Station.

The disruptions are now apparently behind with today’s restoration of normal service.
