The Red Line outbound is dead at Andrew Square due to what the T is calling a "power problem" - dead enough to try to get shuttle buses running between Park Street and Ashmont.
Thomas reports he was on the last car of a train around 11 p.m.:
We were evacuated in a hurry by an official who said the train was on fire, then corrected himself by saying there was a fire in front of the train.
Boston firefighters reported a fire near the tracks off Von Hillern Street.
