The agency said a recent routine inspection of an Orange Line vehicle uncovered a failure in a power cable that may have crated some electrical arcing with a nearby train axle. All other Orange Line vehicles were subsequently inspected, and to date the MBTA said it has identified nine cars where some arcing appears to have occurred, and removed all of the impacted cars for repairs, including replacement of the axles. A total of 11 axles across the nine cars have been impacted.
As the MBTA continues its inspections and repairs, it said that Orange Line riders will continue to experience increased wait times and longer headways of about 15 minutes between trains. As a result of a temporarily reduced fleet, riders will experience increased wait times & posted headways may not be accurate. We appreciate our riders' patience as we work to address the issue & apologize for any inconvenience. We will provide updates as they become available.
