MBTA officials said the Commuter Rail will also accommodate customers between Braintree and South Station in both directions.
Middleborough and Kingston trains will stop at Braintree, Quincy Center and JFK. Greenbush trains will stop at Quincy Center and JFK, officials said.
The MBTA police shared a photo and additional information on what's causing the issue. According to them, the overturned trailer damaged fencing, which is causing interference on the train line.
