MBTA Power Outage Disrupts Everyone's Commute

In a shocking turn of events, something unfortunate occurred at the MBTA today, and nobody had a good plan for dealing with it! Oh wait: that kind of thing happens all the time. Anyway, today's unfortunate event was a massive system-wide MBTA power outage that left folks stranded underground all over town for 20 minutes or more. Some power has been restored, but signals are not working and trains are operating slowly. The Red Line is still stuck. The MBTA's website describes the mishap as a "power problem." It may have been concentrated between Kenmore and Park Street as that's where crews are working, creating "10-15 delays" for Green Line commuters. We're going to go with much more than 15 delays caused by this incident. The police say all power has been restored but that service is not back in business yet. Alternate transportation is suggested.
