... but trolley's don't have to suck; money spent on buses could be put to better use improving real public transit. More buses or more trolleys? wich is better? best is proper underline subways. slow yet steady and continuous expansion of rapid transit would be a boon to the city and...

... buses suck. the last thing we need is bigger buses clogging boston's roads.

... allston is no beacon hill, but i think alot of you are generalizing. I lived there for many years not too long ago. Yes there are plenty of the disgusting places that makes one wonder if they are suitable for human habitation. Yes, its generally overpriced, but I found it awesome. I...
