However, commuters are reporting delays of up to 30 minutes. We'll update as soon as we know more. Until then, so sorry, Muni commuters. Feel free to share with us your commuting stories in the comments. more ›

The fine folks at KRON 4 Morning News report that BART riders should look forward to "major delays" this morning due to a power outage. The sluggishness, it seems, will affect the Richmond to Fremont and Richmond to Millbrae lines. [KRON] more ›

This morning, a 58-year-old man died "after being found between a curb and San Francisco Municipal Railway light-rail tracks" at Church Street at 22nd Street a little after 9 a.m. This resulted in police activity slowing down service. But, according to SF Appeal, none one yet knows how, exactly, he died. While the cause of death has yet to be determined, and police are still trying to figure that out, Appeal received an unconfirmed tip, saying, "'I just got a call from REDACTED saying that the J church incident involved a dude dying because they got hit by the J line...possibly between the inbound and outbound cars...'" Heavy. We'll update you as soon as we know more. Oh, and service has since been restored to normal operation. more ›

Happening right now (as of 4:30 p..m), the N Judah is anticipating big delays. Getting home should be difficult, so riders should explore non-Muni methods of getting home. more ›

Around 70 Muni buses serving more than two dozen biodiesel buses were delayed this morning after a union steward with Transport Workers Union Local 250-A blocked the gate and prevented the buses from leaving the Muni facility in the Dogpatch neighborhood. According to Muni officials the upset union steward disrupted service due to a dispute with management "over whether or not a personnel assignment was decided on the basis of seniority." The incident occurred between 5:30 a.m. and 6:30 a.m. more ›

After an eastbound train rammed into "an object" in the Transbay Tube this afternoon, riders can expect delays of "at least 35 minutes." Trains are running on a single track through the tube, so, you know, plan accordingly. more ›

Seriously. Or, so it looks that way. It's reading the times of both trains. Or so we you know. more ›

Due to a "system-wide signal interruption," according to a Caltrain spokeswoman Christine Dun, service has come to a standstill. It has something or other to do with a "computer malfunction in the main signal operating system in the San Jose yard." SFist readers have also told us that they're stuck at Bayshore. It is not yet known just when service will be fully restored. In related news, there was a "stage 3 at central," whatever that means, on Bart that resulted in a train getting stuck under the bay. Bart service, though, seems to be running as usual now. more ›

What a delightfully diverting game of Muni roulette! Several stops on the 43 line will be "intermittently closed." Maybe they're open; maybe they're not -- the only way to know for sure is to waste your time walking over to them to check! And then waste your time walking to another stop. And hey, where exactly ARE those other stops? There's no map on the sign, so if you don't know the area, you're out of luck. But it's not like the Presidio Trust has any interest in tourism, right? more ›

According to the L train driver this morning, there are switching problems right now in the subway. This means that trains to downtown from West Portal are s...l...o...w (ten minutes or so from Forest Hill to Castro station), and the J and L will crawl once they hit the Duboce Tunnel. If you have a morning meeting, you're probably gonna be late. more ›

A cracked rail at the Lake Merritt BART Station will cause delays all say long, possible lasting well into the evening. According to ABC 7, the "hairline crack is inside the Oakland Y - the underground maze of trackway where all five lines converge." This means you can expect up to 30-minute delays since it's forcing trains to use single track. Plan accordingly. UPDATE: Damn you, ABC 7 news team. You made it sound like mass hysteria. Turns out BART is "back on track." Crisis averted. more ›

SFist James sends us this photo, care of Matt Bellinger, of some packed albeit controversial Muni action that happened this afternoon during rush hour. Wheelchair man, it seems, demanded to get on per federal law and holds up train at Civic Center; Muni operator and passengers refuse to let him on. Operator was literally screaming at the guy to get out of the doorway of the packed train. more ›

Good grief, this Chinese New Year business sure does go on for a long time. This weekend, it's a New Year Parade and a New Year Community Fair that'll be tying up traffic. A ton of major east-west lines will be affected on Saturday afternoon -- the 5, the 71, the 38, the F, the 1, and so on. more ›

There are two events of interest to Muni this weekend: Critical Mass tonight at 6, and Supercross Saturday at one of the baseball parks. Both events are dedicated to the elimination of automobiles, but only one will actually accomplish its goal, while the other will just be a noisy, irritating echo chamber. more ›

It's a freaking typhoon out there, and Muni wants you to wait 30 minutes for a bus. And then when it comes, it comes in threes! Just like celebrity deaths! more ›
