From the unusually quiet south station to swap mbta stations from summerville to boston a single broken amtrak signal created a disastrous note that pretty writers thursday morning. The signal that broke down is supposed to guide trains in and out of south station without it Commuter Rail trains had to find another place to go overloading he stops at the orange line back bay. Committees took their frustrations to social media showing the results of the rerouting. Leslie with keolis private company that operates the is largely out of their control says its amtrak signal we checked throughout the day with amtrak which provided no estimate on when the repair would be done. For commuters the reason matters less than the solution but today was nowhere in sight. You heard the piece their love commuters want to know are they going to get a refund today for all of their frustrations that you can see still persisting at this hour. Mbta said the short answer is no because they say this is a problem out of their control because its an amtrak switch. How many workers are you seeing hoping all those people behind you . There a lot out here both from keolis private company that operates the Commuter Rail also Transit Police we go behind me you can see them right here leading down to the platforms weve seen them here all day long every hour of the day even in the down times here to offer advice people from thats definitely a marked improvement over last year i dont think they had these people up here before. Certainly need the help tonight. Ted daniel at south station will only Providence Attleboro and attleboro line passages should be going in ted you spoke with a trade expert today about what could causes switch problems. Reporter all day and as we speak people arriving here at south station only to find out you cant get there from here the word went out around 3 oclock this afternoon that only Providence Stoughton attleboro would be departing from here but as you can see by the crowd not everybody got Commuter Rail passages where trouble getting into south station this morning faced with a new problem this heading out. Fox 25 lost electronic control of the signals and switches that allow trains to enter and exit south station. Situation is like an air Traffic Controller trying to route flights without radar. Mechanical engineer william tusk University Professor says a limited number of trades coming and going from south they should have to be switched manually. Their essential but sometimes a breakdown and then humans have to take over. Its an amtrak issue and governor baker is not happy about it. To have this happen to find out about it at 6 oclock in the morning to be scrambling around 20 figure out how to people deal with their morning commute is not the preferred route for any of us. I get the frustration believe me. Back to life picture now is it amtrak issue but everyone is the trains that are getting out of south station right now are experiencing delays because with the automation down, they are having to switch the trains manually as they make their way out of boston. Kitchen block of her own tweets about travel delays just yesterday leslie who heard from a little bit earlier was on the passenger end of a issue lit up American Airline several trees to complain of a flight to boston from washington d. C. The start you off right with the first with this is how it began. Infuriating when you say were on time yet 8 30 flight is clearly not leaving from gate 29. Letting us know the gate change eight minutes before door reporting was to start was not respectful of my time. And lastly, she treats this, departing a 47 lets see wont miss my meeting either way. How about the mbta writers how much of they dealt with over the last year and now today todays events they are very social media savvy if you didnt know they tore into her about her tweets this morning as they suffer through another troubled commute. In fact we have match he treats if you have morning meetings its a good thing you dont depend on the mbta Commuter Rail or keolis to get to work. Another tweet came in this one says, not respectful of my time . So now you know how mbta keolis passengers feel every day. Karma. And finally we wrap it up with sarah who sums it all up by saying, really . This proved he really and truly dont get it. Own it, solve it, stop always using amtrak as excuse. Not only is keolis dealing with angry passages also running in the red. Statehouse news reports the company lost 30 million in its first year working with massachusetts. The main reason is quote unforeseen operation costs. In 2014 keolis one eight your bid to one of the Commuter Rail getting paid 2. 7 nine dollars. Morning team was there every step of the way with up to the second traffic updates and live reports with this news first broke today. Makes you turn into a tune into fox 25 morning is starting at 4 00 a. M. To see if there are additional switch or track issues doing the right commute. As we take another look at the crews working hard to fix that switch signal thats causing this fiasco, a reminder that our team of reporters is going to continue to follow the breaking news throughout the rest of this hour and the night.

Tonight the pope and president ial candidate donald trump in a war of words. George coley joins us now from a washington bill with more on what started these verbal jabs. Reporter donald trump is not known to back down from a fight with any political opponent especially because hes been attacked unfairly and now he can add pope francis to that list. The pope was asked about trumps views on immigration on his way home following a visit to mexico just hours after he prayed at the usmexico border for those who die trying to gop front runner stance that as president he would build a wall along the entire border to stop mexican immigrants from coming into the night states. A person thinks only about walls wherever they may be located, and not building bridges, is not a christian. Im a very good christian because the pope said something to the effect that maybe donald trump isnt christian. Okay . And hes questioning my faith. I was very surprised to see it i am a christian. Im proud of it. Okay. For religious leader to question a persons faith is disgraceful. Trump a presbyterian on to defend aggression policy saying i dont want to live with the uncertainties of hep c. Or wonder whether i should i am ready. Because today theres harvoni. A revolutionary treatment for the most common type of chronic hepatitis c. Harvoni is proven to cure up to 99 of patients whove had no prior treatment. Its the one and only cure thats one pill, once a day for 12 weeks. Certain patients. Can be cured with just 8 weeks of harvoni. With harvoni, theres no interferon and there are no complex regimens. Tell your doctor if you have other liver or kidney problems, hiv, or other medical conditions, and about all the medicines you take including herbal supplements. Taking amiodarone with harvoni may cause a serious slowing of your heart rate. Common side effects of harvoni may include tiredness, headache and weakness. I am ready to put hep c behind me. I am ready to be cured. Are you ready . Ask your hep c specialist if harvoni is right for you. Theyre one of the wall street banks that triggered the financial meltdown goldman sachs. Just settled with authorities for their part in the crisis that put seven million out of their homes. How does wall street get away with it . Millions in Campaign Contributions and speaking fees.

Sanders im Bernie Sanders, breaking news out of Umass Amherst at this hour report of a gunman on the campus there the school alerted that a white man with a gun was seen Pierpont Hall freshman dorm in the maybe some other people involved. Campus police in the perimeter has been secured at this moment but students asked to shelter in place but gunmen seen on Umass Amherst campus students being asked to shelter placement take a look at some tweets coming from the school bit earlier made us aware of this exact was going on out there.

So that is what the students are hearing the faculty the people campus at this hour you can imagine it Umass Amherst enrollment in the thousands that is a lot of people a very large campus. Lets go to the dining hall area thats located in this section right here. You can see if we pull this apart a little bit Pierpont Hall located right here this is berkshire dining commons residential life over here if you pull it down this way familiar with their at all youll know that the football stadium is right over here so this is the area that theyre looking at right now. This is where they telling students to shelter place or anyone else who might be on campus. Alerts going out across the campus for children in the area any students in the area adults in the area to shelter in place. Will continue to update you on the story as we will 6 30. Also breaking right now at 6 30 crews to working hard to fix the switch issue its been affecting the morning evening commutes for thousands of people today. We do have Team Coverage for tonight fox25 ted daniels life itself station were only a few trains are running tonight. But lets start with fox25 catherine or jim shes in braintree tonight talking with confused writers about this mess. Reporter were here on the Commuter Rail platform we were told that the next train will be coming in about 10 minutes in fact i see it coming down the track right now itll pull up behind us but as you can see just a few folks are waiting end things are running a lot more smoothly than they were this morning. Keolis mbta employees have been here on the platform helping commuters to get on the rate chain. There was initial confusion however during the first rush this evening many tell us they left the office early because of the problems this morning only to find the mbta had released conflicting information about where to go. After writers hopped off the red line here they had to wait up to 30 cold minutes for the commuter train they said it was still better than it was this morning. So this morning we got on the train in kingston to take the t when we got on the train the guy said oh theres no more train to go to south bay station where to get on the red line in the red line was packed. Really packed and people couldnt come in who were getting on other stops. That commuter told me her normal ride into south station about 20 minutes she says this morning it took two hours however some commuters have told us the only Silver Lining were not charged for their transfer from the red line. Had back to south station ted daniel it appears a crowd there have finally started to thin out things moving along at all . A little bit rail passengers were trouble getting into south station this morning though vanessa are still having a problem getting out with only that essentially one line opened this evening. If you have been with us since five you can see the crowd has been not as many people but the ones that are here and the ones that were talking with all day today absolutely irate. In a statement amtrak tells us fox25 they lost electronic control the signals and switches but allowed trains to enter and exit south station the situation is kind of like an air Traffic Controller. Who was unable to communicate have radar. That means the limited number of trains coming and going from south station are having to be manually switched and that is taking extra time. I do feel like they tried a little bit more with communications but this is an example today of how its kind of bail. Amtrak alerted the state around six this morning about an hour after it found out about this problem. So this is been going on now for more than 12 hours. The big question tomorrow morning there hoping the problems will be fixed by the morning commute but that hasnt and completely addressed yet. And we will be watching and waiting stay with fox25 throughout the night for that information. Now we want to get back to the breaking news weve been Umass Amherst. We do have a student on the phone with us right now. Real quickly that the shelter place order at the campus is now gone campus wide.
