ARLINGTON, Va. (AP) _ Metro officials say they no longer expect major delays on the Orange line during Tuesday’s morning commute following Monday’s train derailment in Arlington.

Metro spokeswoman Lisa Farbstein says some repairs have been made to a damaged track in the area, and only minor delays are expected.

Officials say the third car of a six-car train derailed about 2:45 p.m. between the Rosslyn and Court House stations. No one was injured, but about 400 people had to be rescued from a tunnel.

The National Transportation Safety Board is investigating.
