Car Strikes Yellow Line Train In Skokie

SKOKIE, IL — No one was injured after a collision between a train and a CTA Yellow Line near the Skokie station Thursday, according to police.

All trains were halted briefly near the Skokie station after a car pulled out of a car wash in the 8400 block of Niles Center Road and drove into the path of a train, police said.

The CTA said it restored service after briefly shuttling riders on buses but reported residual delays.

Yellow Line is operating with residual delays following an earlier collision with a vehicle near Skokie/Dempster.
