Okay. Nice photos. A bit more info would be nice, though.

Tell us about the bus bridge. Between where and where? (I saw a Glenmont windshield sign on one of the buses). Metrorail out of service for maintenance? We need information!

Five stations on the Red Line were closed (Glenmont, Wheaton, Forest Glen, Silver Spring and Takoma) from late Friday evening until 5 AM Tuesday so that crews could perform numerous tasks. During this time WMATA operated the bus brdige which included 3 different routes. The yellow route operate between Silver Spring and Fort Totten (also serving Takoma). The Green route operated between Glenmont and Georgia Ave-Petworth with stops at Glenmont, Wheaton, Forest Glen Silver Spring and Georgia Ave-Petworth. The red route operated between Glenmont and Fort Totten.
