Metra said train #1233, which was scheduled to arrive in Aurora at 3:04 p.m., is stopped near Naperville due to a signal issue. The duration of the delay is unknown.
Metra train #1263, which was scheduled to depart Union Station in Chicago at 5:11 p.m., will not operate due to the signal problems. Metra officials warned that because of the cancellation, ridership on train #1265 will likely be heavier than normal.
Metra asked passengers to check boards at the stations and mobile device alerts. Metra officials anticipated changes in the BNSF schedule Thursday night due the signal problems on the line, and likely more train cancellations as well.
