Description:

Brunswick Line trains may experience 20-30 minute delays Monday morning between Gaithersburg and Silver Spring due to the major PEPCO power outage in Montgomery County, This outage has resulted in interruptions to CSX signals and switching equipment, causing trains to significantly reduce speeds.

In addition, many stations will be without power Monday. While trains will continue to stop at stations as scheduled, this power interruption means that station door locks will not work, ticket machines and restrooms will not be accessible, and PA/LED systems will not function. The on board ticket surcharge will be waived for all stations east of and including Germantown. Passengers are reminded that tickets can be purchased on the train with cash only, no credit or debit cards are accepted. You can also download the CharmPass app to purchase tickets on your mobile device.

Further updates will be provided in the morning. Thank you for riding MARC Train.
