Transit officials and the Baltimore Orioles are warning fans to leave extra time when taking the light rail to Sunday afternoon’s game.
Light rail service is suspended between North Avenue and Lutherville “due to weather related downed trees on the overhead power lines,” the Maryland Transit Administration posted on Sunday morning.
The MTA is offering bus service between the two stations.
The Orioles noted on social media that there was “significant damage” and cautioned light rail-riding fans.
