Blue Line Trains Suspended At O'Hare Due To Smoke On Platform
CHICAGO (CBS) --Blue Line trains were halted between O'Hare and Rosemont Wednesday evening due to smoke on the platform of the airport station.
Emergency crews were called shortly before 6 p.m. to investigate, and firefighters were able to take care of a "light haze" by 6:15 p.m., according to a Chicago Fire Department spokesman. There was no fire, and no one was hurt, officials said.
Train service was still suspended as of 6:30 p.m., though shuttles were being sent to take riders from the airport to Rosemont, according to the CTA. Service between Rosemont and Forest Park was not affected.
