Tree disrupts Amtrak, commuter rail service through Hyde Park
By adamg on Thu, 09/30/2010 - 4:41pm
The Boston Fire Department is on scene at the main rail line through Hyde Park, where wind toppled a tree onto the inbound catenary lines, causing it to burst into flames. Rail traffic was stopped in both directions as firefighters awaited the arrival of an Amtrak crew who could turn off the power to allow the charred remnants to be removed and to inspect the wires for damage.

Re-routing
Franklin, Providence, and Stoughton have been re-routed via Fairmont, so no service at BackBay. Needham and Worcester are supposed to be running.
For those of us waiting for Amtrak? Well, we're just waiting....
