Light-rail service to be restored to Hunt Valley

Published November 23, 2008 5:00am ET



The northern portion of Baltimore’s light-rail service is scheduled to be restored to near full operation today after two weeks of closures, Maryland transportation officials said.

Service is to be restored to Hunt Valley after slippery conditions damaged the wheels of many trains, bringing the system to a halt last weekend, officials said. Engineers worked overtime during the week to modify train controls to allow sudden stops without damaging the wheels.
