BART train hits downed tree branch, shuts down service between Daly City and 24th Street

A BART train hit a fallen tree branch on the tracks Wednesday morning, shutting down service in both directions between the 24th Street Mission and Daly City stations, agency officials said.

BART officials initially reported the problem at about 11:50 a.m. involving a Millbrae-bound train.

Service is stopped in both directions because of equipment damage that resulted from the train hitting the branch, according to BART.

Muni buses are providing rides to customers trying to get to stations between 24th Street Mission and Daly City.
