Officials were reconstructing the accident at the Babson Reservoir for more than three hours Wednesday night. Passengers who were on the commuter train that hit the unidentified man were shuttled by bus to Rockport. Commuters who were waiting at the Gloucester station took buses to Rockport, as the track was shut down between Gloucester and Rockport following the accident.
