Details are a bit sparse right now, but a trail derailed in the East Falls Church station this morning. Passengers were evacuated to the platform, but the train is still blocking the track, and the East Falls Church station is closed.
Due to the safety surge, there is still single-tracking between East Falls Church and Ballston.
Edit: According to MetroHero, it looks like there are two Silver Line trains trapped to the west of the derailment, and they appear to be cycling back and forth between McLean and Wiehle. Similar thing going on the Orange Line - two trains cycling back and forth between Vienna and West Falls Church.
