On 1/9/2019, Boston Fire Alarm struck a box for a reported fire on an MBTA train on Widett Circle. First-due companies had smoke showing and found a fire in a compartment. Before companies could use dry chem on the fire, command requested all southbound train traffic stopped so members could cross the tracks. The fire was quickly knocked down after traffic was stopped.
