Subway service on the Yonge line (1) is running again after power was turned off at Summerhill station when someone got on the tracks and was hit by a train about 9 a.m. Friday. It stopped traffic between Eglinton and Bloor. In the delicate language of the TTC: “A person has made contact with a train.” There is no information as to motivation or reasons for this. But as is almost always the case, the stoppage threw passengers into a state when shuttle buses were late and/or unable to park.
@TTCnotices way to go TTC. Great contingency planning. Waiting 40 minutes for shuttle bus. Nothing for 20 minutes. 3 buses pass loaded. pic.twitter.com/Os4CmlyulK
