Today began just as yesterday did, with once again NO TRAINS at Oak Grove. If the MBTA is trying to implement a new schedule with vastly reduced service, they should at least have the foresight to tell passengers (not properly referred to as customers, FYI (T)) BEFORE THEY CHANGE THINGS IN WINTER. Oh wait, I'm sorry, this is the MBTA we are talking about. So anyway, the wait was not nearly as bad this morning, and the train was therefore less crowded. This afternoon, at Copley, my lateness made me run to catch a North Station trolley, a Type 7, which closed the doors on people three times, though they did of course reopen immediately. Hmmmm, might it be a good idea to check that no one is rushing to get the train before closing the doors? That would probably interfere with the schedules though. If there actually is one. Orange line was late for the second time in the day, but only by a few minutes, probably due to heavy ridership on account of this strange cold spell that has come over the Boston area. I think I heard it called 'winter'. With slush forecast for tomorrow, it will be interesting to see how the (T) handles things for the morning commute. Probably they can't remember what winter weather does to the system. Anyway, all for today, be back tomorrow.
And so it goes, another day riding forever 'neath the streets of boston.
