Green Line resumes normal service in Boston

BOSTON (AP) - The MBTA has resumed normal trolley service on the Boston College branch of the Green Line.

The transit system was forced to run shuttle buses Wednesday after a car jumped the tracks on Commonwealth Ave, bringing down power lines and sparking a fire that caused significant damage to the train.

About 30 passengers were safely evacuated after the early-morning accident, which remains under investigation.
