Metro Transit has a message for Route 888 riders this morning:
Buses will replace trains on the Northstar Line between Fridley and Target Field Stations during this morning's commute due to a disabled freight train and resulting track and signal repair. Customers will transfer from trains to buses at Fridley Station and are asked to plan for longer trips.
