Trolley derails at Lechmere; riders probably too hot to jeer

Brendan Kearney reports he'd just gotten off a trolley at Lechmere when the trolley failed to navigate the curve to turn around and came a bit off the tracks. The T is now busing passengers.

Well, that might explain why the Lechmere-Harvard bus I and others were waiting for for 50 minutes in the heat last night didn't arrive. They must've diverted buses from that route. Mbta.com had no bus alert about it, of course.
