Normal CTA Red Line service is resuming after trains were rerouted to elevated tracks Thursday because of a person on the tracks at a subway station on the Near North Side.
Power to the tracks was cut after a train operator saw a male walking on the tracks at 8:18 a.m. near the Chicago station, 800 N. State St., according to CTA spokesman Steve Mayberry and Chicago police.
All trains were rerouted to elevated tracks between Cermak-Chinatown and Fullerton, according to the CTA. Normal subway routing resumed with residual delays shortly after 9 a.m.
