BART resumes service at Dublin/Pleasanton station after death on tracks

PLEASANTON, Calif. -- Regular train service is resuming at BART's Dublin/Pleasanton station after a death was reported on the tracks early Wednesday morning, an agency spokeswoman said.

A "major medical emergency" was initially reported just before 6 a.m. on the tracks, causing the transit agency to close the Dublin/Pleasanton station and stop running trains between that station and the West Dublin/Pleasanton station, BART spokeswoman Anna Duckworth said.
