SAN FRANCISCO -- BART reported a major delay Friday on the Dublin/Pleasanton blue line because of an equipment problem on a train.

The problem was originally reported at 10:41 a.m. and was affecting service in both the Daly City and Dublin/Pleasanton directions. The delay was still ongoing as of 1:47 p.m. according to 511.org.

Earlier Friday morning, a disabled BART train caused a major delay on the same line between the West Dublin/Pleasanton and Castro Valley stations.

It was not clear whether the two issues were related.

Friday afternoon shortly after 2 p.m., BART added the Richmond line to its list of ongoing problems after a trackside power problem halted direct service to San Francisco from the Richmond line. 

San Francisco-bound passengers are advised to board a Berryessa train and transfer at MacArthur to an SFO Airport train.
