Good morning, commuters!

Blue Line trains are running as usual this morning after a train derailment knocked out service between the Mall of America and Humphrey Station at the MSP Airport.

Buses had been substituting for trains between the stations since Saturday when a train came off the tracks near 30th avenue, about halfway between the 28th Avenue and Bloomington Central stations.

Survey work is complete on northbound 35W and all lanes between Crosstown and downtown Minneapolis are back open.

Eastbound 94 has a lane closed for road work from Huron Blvd. to Hwy. 280. The same is true on northbound 494 at 394.

I'll be keeping an eye on the roads and rails this morning, reporting any delays or issues — and I will need your help.

If you see or hear about any congestion, delays or problems, e-mail drive@startribune or tweet @stribdrive.
