A ride home took an unexpected turn for several SEPTA passengers after an incident onboard a train late Saturday night.
All passengers were safely evacuated from the train, and service was temporarily shut down. It is unclear how many passengers were onboard at the time, but several were seen boarding SEPTA buses below the train.
Service has since been resumed for the line as a Sunday morning, but officials say to still expect some delays. Officials have yet to say what caused the incident, and if any damage was sustained. No injuries have been reported.
