They could do that easily with the Washington Street Silver Line, but I think the more important connection is North Station to Seaport and Airport, and those buses are already underground. As a reminder, Sl Phase 3 was underground to Boylston. Im proposing underground to North Station via the...

Considering its clear the future of the MBTA is an entirely Silver Line based transit network, I think its time to start thinking about the South Station-North Station connection to be done via the Silver Line. The Silver line is already underground at South Station. Just knock a hole into the...

Outside of the Boston Elevated Railway (BERy) system, where were the last streetcars operated in the state? Well, Lowell is still running sort of....

An ideal plan would have a train running from Riverside to North Station, stopping along the way.

I will read the report later, but if it doesnt start by recommending SL2 have wire strung up immediately, the whole thing is trash

Damn, thats a long run. If my memory is correct, they opened in 2008. Was a Brazilian place before that

Thats nice 3rd track theyre building there. Surely thats what it is, because no one would be dumb enough to permanently make the route 2 tracks

Agreed. They could even brand it as a one-year introductory free period to build ridership.

Right, directly under the sign that says "north" the map shows the line going north in the outbound direction. Its poor map design.

They could switch sides and run on the left in both directions until they switch at North station or whatever

"Park Street and North" - I prefer "eastbound". The way they draw the map makes it seem like the green line is going north to the west as well

We had all door boarding with Charlie Card 1.0 and some imbecile at the MBTA decided it was better to squeeze out every last penny and add 5 minutes of travel time to the green line because heavens forbid someone not pay

Spirit is doing Boston-EWR again apparently. My friend was on it this past weekend

You can tell theyre modern because the "tap to pay" area is enormous

The solution is obvious folks. Elevate the river instead and put the cars under it

Lot of great updates

Do buses have a system in place?
