BERKELEY, CA – OCTOBER 15: A Bay Area Rapid Transit (BART) train emerges from a tunnel on October 15, 2013 in Berkeley, California. BART management and union leaders with Bay the Amalgamated Transit Union Local 1555 and the SEIU Local 1021 continue to negotiate a new contract for workers as the threat of a transit strike continues to loom over the heads of Bay Area commuters. BART, the nation’s fifth-largest commuter rail system, carries nearly 400,000 passengers every weekday. (Photo by Justin Sullivan/Getty Images)
BART officials halted Green Line service between Berryessa and Daly City stations Thursday morning, and it wasn't restored until more than two hours later.
The 5:36 a.m. news release provided no cause and no further details about the service stoppage.
BART later said it was recovering from an equipment problem on the tracks. As of 8 a.m., a 20-minute delay remained on the Berryessa line in all directions because of the equipment problem at the Bay Fair station, BART officials said.
