Due to flood damage, Blue Line trains are only operating between the Shrewsbury-Lansdowne I-44 and Forest Park-DeBaliviere Stations. Blue Line riders traveling to a station east of Forest Park-DeBaliviere will need to transfer to a Red Line train. Westbound riders in St. Clair County or Downtown St. Louis, should hop on any Red Line train to get to the Stadium, Civic Center, Central West End and Forest Park-DeBaliviere Stations.
