The Loop Trolley in St. Louis will be closed, after short notice, for maintenance this weekend.

"After just six weekends of operation, the Loop Trolley has shut down for what its website described as system maintenance," reports Mark Schlinkmann.
"A notice on the website Thursday afternoon gave no further details other than to say that service will resume next weekend," adds Schlinkmann. "Normally the trolley runs from Thursday through Sunday."
The Trolley also had trouble on opening day, when the trolley suddenly couldn't operate on its entire route, among other challenges.
