Metro conducted a multi jurisdiction response drill involving the bombing of a train in the tunnel between Foggy Bottom and Rosslyn.

The drill, dubbed Operation “Deep Rescue” because it took place in the lowest spot of the longest tunnel in Metro, had 150 volunteer participants — many from Community Emergency Response Teams from around the region — and drew more than 200 first responders from the District, Virginia, Maryland and federal agencies.
