Time to spill some Red Line tea; trains delayed due to debris

By adamg on Fri, 07/07/2023 - 12:30pm

Update: After increasing the delays to 30 minutes, the T has just called off the trains and is bustituting between Park and JFK/UMass as workers try to clear whatever the debris is.

The MBTA reports delays of up to 15 minutes on the Red Line "while we investigate reports of debris in the track area at Broadway."

Maybe T debris is tea?

it’s my understanding that the T stands for Truth, not the beverage tea.

I was on the train that stopped at Broadway. One or two large panels were dangling from the ceiling located over the tracks at the end of the platform.

One T employee whacked some of it down with a broom. But he couldn't get all of it.

Then they closed the station, told us to go up and get a shuttle bus. Inbound busses came, but zero outbound busses. Station opened in another 15 minutes.

Just another day in the paradise that is the T.

FYI: The debris was a ceiling panel.
