Train delays this weekend

If you're planning to take the train between Providence and Boston, or parts in between, take note. The Providence/Stoughton line is going to be doing things a little differently.

The Ruggles Commuter Station will be closed Saturday and Sunday. Passengers going to Ruggles on the Providence/Stoughton line will need to transfer to the Orange Line at the Back Bay station for a transfer to Ruggles.

Another commuter rail closure, the Hyde Park station will be closed from Saturday until Tuesday, June 17. Passengers instead will need to use the Readville station. There will be shuttle buses to take people to and from Hyde Park to Readville.

All Providence line passengers should expect 10-15 minute delays between Saturday and Tuesday; travelers on the Stoughton lines should expect similar delays on Monday and Tuesday.

And scheduled work by Amtrak means there will be no Amtrak trains passing through Canton Junction from Saturday through Tuesday, June 17.

For more information, including maps and schedules, see the Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority's Web site.
