Red Line restored after small fire

By Noah Bierman, Globe Staff

Service on the Red Line has resumed this morning after a small trash fire on the Longfellow Bridge halted trains for 21 minutes, according to a spokesman for the MBTA.

Boston firefighters responded to extinguish the small blaze, which required that power be shut off on the third rail at 10 a.m., according to spokesman Joe Pesaturo.
