The announcement that was running tonight around 11:30pm at Government Center said that "Due to construction on the Highland Branch, bussing will occur between Newton Centre and Riverside." I assume this has something to due with the accident today, but if so, I would think the bussing would begin somewhere prior to the Newton Centre stop... so maybe it's something different?
Another thing that struck me odd was the use of the term "Highland Branch". I've never heard anyone call the D-Line that outside of the rollsigns on the older trolleys (Boeings and Type 7s pre 3650 I think). I would think that many non-railfans would have no idea what the Highland Branch was.
