I'm almost willing to bet that there will still be another long-ass delay with the new railcars. Seems as though there are delays after delays in getting the new trains made. This is so damn ridiculous!!!!!! :mad: :mad: :mad::mad::mad:

The tower was an embarrassment to the City of Boston & it had had even earned the the nickname of the Plywood Building!! All those window panes had fallen out. The tower swayed too much and a damper had to be put in on the 59th floor to keep the building from swaying so much. In addition to it...

It looks better now with the signature. on top of it!!! :)

Has anyone seen the damage of the two OL cars that were involved in the derailment? I wonder how they look., compaired to how they'll look when they are fixed. :eek: :eek: :eek:

The longest tower to be completed, in my book was the newer John Hancock Tower. The 60-story buiding's glass window panels just kept on popping out and hitting the ground. *It's a wonder that no one was hurt. They had to put To me, the building that took the longest to build & correct...

Now they all seem ok after all that derailing & breaking down. It was also said that CRRC was neglecting service checks & not making sure that the work was ok before signing it off, leaving the work undone & crappy :(

Thic pic is actually my avatar!! I cropped it to take the people out that were all standing on the platform waiting for the train to arrive & stop. :)

This is so cute!!! The rabbit is scraching himself under his right ear & is following the turtle!! Normally, it's the other way around!!!! Hah!!!! :)

This was the first day that the new Orange Line trains went into service. August 19, 2021. It was pulled by lead car 1402.

This job kinda reminds me of when the new Tappan Zee Bridge was being biult to replace the old one!! :)

I didn't think of that. Sorry. But we are finally about to see the end of the controversy in that area that's been in hot water for years ever since the track yard was removed. And BTW, the work will be similar to the work that was done for the Comm Ave Bridge Replacement. :)...

The Massacusetts Turnpike Authorirty or Mass. Dot will soon begin the bridge replacement work that's needed to bring the road work up to date & remodel or redo the area near the Newton area where Route 128/95 & the Mass. Pike meet.. It's been a long time coming & I think this is it. :)

This is what it felt like riding the old Hawkers on the Blue Line. After a while, the Orange Line's old Hawkers felt the same way!! I felt hopping mad!!! Hah!!!! :eek:

There' a bridge somewhere along the Northeast Corriddor that turns to let boats trough, similar to the one in Boston that closed. It is being replaced with a new & higher one that lets the traffic on the water go under it, but it's not completed yet. Supposedly, it's not ready yet. :unsure:

Is the Avelia Liberty delayed again? Why in the world does this train just keep on being put off from going into service again, & again, & again?!!!!!!!

In that pic, you can also see the old Orane Line El running past the Holy Cross Cathedral. As kids, we rode that line all the time to the barber school that our dad sent us to, to get a haircut!!!!!!!! :)

The 2 tallest buildings back then were the old John Hancock & the Custom House Tower (now the Marriott Hotel). It was before Boston started getting a redo with new office towers.

Seems like a long time away. :(

I wonder just how the new Type 10's are coming along, thinking just when the first trolley will be made & will come off the assembly line.. And will it look exactly like the mockup that was on display at City Hall plaza. I trust that CAF will do the thing right, unlike CRRC, which did a crappy...

I d8id not know that this bridge was renmaed after Bill Russell. :)
