DART train fire causes service disruptions for Downtown Dallas
Dallas fire crews are battling a fire involving a DART train near the Pearl/Arts District Station Wednesday evening. There may be significant delays for passengers as all train service through Downtown Dallas is currently suspended, officials said.
Crews were called to the area just after 3:30 p.m.
Firefighters are currently working at the entry of the tunnel system as DART trains move from downtown to Mockingbird Station, Dallas Fire-Rescue said.
DART said shuttle buses are available to assist passengers at Victory, EBJ/Union, West End, Akard, St. Paul, Pearl/Arts District, Deep Ellum, Cityplace/Uptown and SMU/Mockingbird stations.
Video from the CBS New Texas chopper shows burn and scorch marks on top of one of the train cars.
DART said no injuries have yet been reported. It is unknown if there were passengers on the train when the fire started.
This is a developing story.
