The Glenmont Metro station was closed Monday night after a track fire erupted.

A fire occurred about 8:45 p.m. on a track between the station and the railyard, a Metro spokesman said. Smoke entered the station, and passengers needed to be evacuated, he said. No injuries were reported.

The Montgomery County Fire Department activated ventilation fans, which helped pull smoke out of the tunnel.

The station had reopened as of 9:45 p.m.

Shuttle buses served the Forest Glen, Wheaton and Glenmont stations, Metro said.
