What happened to 1400&1401?

Sorry, yes. I was thinking of the via Watertown alignment.

If we're not tearing down buildings, Green-Waltham would have to be mostly street-running west of School St, which seems like it would be a vastly worse service than Red-Waltham.

I think they said it was retire the most troublesome cars first, then increase service.

They're actually claiming they would only need about 800 coaches/cab cars to maintain the same level of service as 1450 EMUs. So to those here who know more than me: 1. Is there a significant enough difference in capacity between coaches and EMUs to justify this difference? 2. Minus any...

So the T is expecting a full electrification cost (with EMUs) to cost $23.6Billion, with the largest portion of that being $10.3Billion for 1450 EMUs, or $7million per car. Compared to the most recent large EMU purchase in the US (NJT's purchase of 113 cars for $669million, $6million per car) it...

I'm assuming you mixed up left and right?

The state's road inventory labels it with some ramp code.

The testing the testing they referred said that the testing referred to in the article would be necessary for rush hour ramp usage.

It built as part of the TWT construction in the 90s.

Someone posted a video on reddit of it going down Blue Hill Ave.

IX.8.3 (House of the Centenary; in the latrine near the front door); 5243: “Secundus defecated here” three time on one wall. Herculaneum (on the exterior wall of a house); 10619: Apollinaris, the doctor of the emperor Titus, defecated well here VII.9 (Eumachia Building, via della Abbondanza)...

Would GJR light rail even look like through this area if if the light rail conversion continues to Sullivan?

Kind of moot with all door boarding coming. Also I've seen them set up belt barriers and collect fares from handheld readers after Red Sox games.

I rode the 70 over that stretch today, and I distinctly remember someone asking for the rear door and it being opened.

Though that still won't give him any influence on the T's funding (unless he proposes that the City increase it's contribution)

As things stand right now, not increasing fares will decrease funding for maintenance. So unless someone is proposing the legislature change the MBTA's funding scheme, they're just blowing hot air.

Statler had been those vapors, and he's not a moderator anymore.

Is there a realistic scenario where decades of under funding gets fixed in 4 years?

And they have announced a hiring initiative to allow for an increase in capital spending.
