Define "Long delays"

There were never "long delays" per se. There was reduced service, and delays of 10-20 minutes (occasionally longer) during the time of reconstruction, but generally nothing worse than that

Back to regular service with the associated shorter delays of that. See my signature.

Well I rode the Red Line last week in the rain. It was during the mid-day hours and there were no delays at all. I was lucky enough to get an odd numbered 1800 series car on the head-end for a good forward view inbound. I did see one bagged signal northbound but the ride was good in both directions.
