It was media day today, so probably open just so folks can check them out. Can't imagine the T would want that kind of liability. https://www.wcvb.com/article/first-look-aboard-the-mbtas-new-red-line-trains/29725138

Subway ad today that this Roche brothers is hiring. Potentially opening soon?

If it is an unexpected need, they do indeed steal from other bus lines. Depending on how long they may need to bus, then extending to the other options you mentioned. Planned bustitutions are much better planned. Much as we complain about breakdowns, they don't have a pool of drivers and...

well, curbing is in, and they were pouring the cycle track this past week. So maybe soon? Occupancy is Nov 1, so it can't be that long until the crosswalk returns to normal....

It is cool watching the building being deconstructed....

hmmm. I unwatched and re-watched a thread and it gave me an email option. We'll see what that brings me :)

Just realizing I'm not getting my daily email of threads I've subscribed to. Is that a feature that may come back at some point? In this new scheme, when I watch a thread, what does that mean?

Seems to have worked...

The orange line cars are a great example of this. At any point they could have done a long interview with any of our TV stations, inviting them in and giving a detailed explanation of what the 9+ months of delays have been - describing what needs to be fixed/tested. Instead we get a generic...

CVB reports the trainset only did 3 round trips and was then pulled form service so the data can be analyzed. No word on when it will re-enter service.

And a really strange font...

According to the T, to train more operators. (Assume running them on the yard lead or track 61)

That sequence has them going the wrong way south down a one way street - almost as if heading to Cabot yards. A long way from Wellington.... Edit: Twitter does indeed have a photo of two OL cars in the RL Cabot storage yard...

Unlikely, as being without an elevator is a no go - especially since Kendall elevator is currently acting as a replacement for the Central elevator, which is out of service.

Group question - are we also discussing the Coop building here? Can't see it on another thread. Was thinking about that as the plans for new Inbound red line headhouses was posted here, and was curious what they will do with the outbound head house when demolition starts...

Well, this morning was interesting. The new configuration of Ames street, proto block, depends on the pavement markings being visible - which they are not due to snow. So this morning we had cars going form Main to Broadway, driving down the bike line (plus cars going down the regular travel...

OK, let's hop over to the other side of the bridge. Looks like they're putting some kind of lagoon in. The stairs off the bridge go on some elevated path across this body of water; and a retaining wall with notch looks like something that might be in your back yard hot tub. Anyone know...

Windows starting to go in at 145. Instead of the nice blue seen in the rendering (see first post) they look like the same drab windows in all the other Kendall buildings...

Crane is coming down this weekend. On Friday a self erecting crane had already begun disassembly.

Right around the corner they've set up a leasing office and 'demo' kitchen, in the lobby of 90 Broadway.
