The People Mover Crashes, Then Offers Free Rides

The People Mover jumped the tracks last night, causing one of the automated cars to collide with the Times Square platform. No one was injured. One might expect such a big hiccup to bring the system down for a few days, but the resilient train dusted itself off and got back on that rail, saving Auto Show attendees from having to walk a single block on the streets of downtown. This morning, DDOT announced that the offending car had been removed and that patrons can ride today for free.
UPDATE (12:30PM): DDOT clarifies that the People Mover expects to resume regular service sometime this afternoon. Busses are shuttling passengers between the stations until then.
