I was leaving Downtown Crossing right before the fire dept went down. A transit cop gave them directions to the unidentified smoke that would lead them to the Oak Grove bound platform.

The Orange Line is shuttered between Back Bay and North Station. If you're heading to Oak Grove from south of North Station, find a Green Line train to North Station and transfer.
