'Severe' Red Line Delays
The MBTA says there is a disabled train outside of Charles/MGH.
The Red Line is experiencing "severe" delays Friday afternoon, according to the MBTA. The agency said there is a disabled train outside of Charles/MGH on the southbound side.
The MBTA originally reported "moderate" delays but has since upgraded them to "severe." Some commuters took to Twitter to vent their frustration with the Red Line's service:
So much for leaving work early and getting home early. Thanks, @mbta, for your stellar red line service, as always. #mbtafail

These Red Line delays are ridiculous. All September it's been an issue. I should just take a Lyft back to Dorchester. #Boston #MBTA

No red line trains north or south bound. Great Friday afternoon commute. #mbta doing great job as usual @MBTA_wtf @not_MBTA
