BOSTON (WHDH) — The MBTA’s Commuter Rail has delays on several lines during Friday’s evening commute due to high tide and switch problems.
Six trains on the Newburyport-Rockpot Line have been canceled due to the historic high tide. Keolis, the company that runs the Commuter Rail, said the high tide flooded the network and caused serious damage on the line. Two trains have been canceled on the Lowell Line, as well as two trains on the Haverhill Line.
A switch issue is also causing delays for trains on several other lines, including on the Greenbush Line from South Station.
