All DART rail lines are operational nearly a week after a fire on one of the system’s trains injured 15 people and hospitalized six, according to WFAA-TV.

The Dallas transit agency’s light rail lines were forced to operate on a modified schedule after a train caught fire near the Pearl/Arts District station downtown, the Star-Telegram previously reported.

The agency and the National Transportation Safety Board are investigating the cause of the fire, according to WFAA-TV.
