  • At 34 Mph, Doors Suddenly Opened on Car of Packed Metra Train
    At 34 mph, doors suddenly opened on car of packed Metra train chicago.suntimes.com/news/at-34-mph-doors-suddenly-opened-on-car-of-packed-metra-bnsf-train-naperville-watchdogs/ If their morning coffee didn’t already have them wide awake, Metra BNSF riders were given a brief jolt of adrenaline when doors in one car on a packed express train between Naperville and the Loop suddenly opened last month. No one was hurt, and the doors quickly closed on their own. But it was the second time in recent years there’s been a problem with open doors on the BNSF line, which stretches between Aurora and Chicago’s Union Station and is Metra’s busiest route and one of its most delay- prone. In 2013, a train heading from the city to the west suburbs ran roughly 10 minutes with a door open, apparently because of an ice build-up, according to news reports at the time. This time, the doors sprung open with people in the vestibule and the train going around 34 miles an hour as it geared up leaving the Naperville station towards its top speed of around 70 mph. “It was a problem with what’s called the door relay, which is a component in the electrical circuit that controls the doors,” according to Metra spokesman Michael Gillis, who said a piece was “worn.” Metra said workers “determined the cause of the electrical glitch to be an intermittent failure of one of the parts of the electrical circuit that controls the train doors.
