The Maryland Transit Administration says tickets for MARC trains on Inauguration Day are sold out.
Kai Jackson reports transit officials are encouraging those who want to travel to Washington Jan. 20 to use a special Commuter Bus service to Metrorail stops.
The MTA says the buses will run every 15 minutes starting as early as 4 a.m. and running through 8:45 a.m. that morning. Afternoon bus service will run between 4 p.m. and 8 p.m.
