Tomorow & Friday, the MBTA will reveal the new Type 10 mockup to be put on display at City Hall Plaza!! You'll get the chance to see how it will look inside & out & you'll also be able to give your input about what you think. Your likes or dislikes. Come one, come all. This is your chance to...

There still are cusioned seats on the Commuter Rail, but as far as anything else, it's not happening. Even tables, it has!!!! :(

I think that I got a solution; Grab a small pillow & take it with you.Use it when riding the bus or train, then make sure that you have it with you on the way back home. I would!!! :)

Slower than cold molasses in January!!!

The forum seems to be running awfully slow. What is going on?!!

Lipstick on a pig. Hah!!!!

Jesus! Why can't I see this already?

I read that the trolley that derailed has been cleared & that the line is back open now. Also, the shuttle buses have stopped being used.

Well dude, Excuse me, but I've been away & just got back today. :(

Here's the accident that occurred on the GLX. A derailment! A few months ago, I rode that line & I had three kids with me!! So glad that we weren't on this i'll-fated ride!!!! :eek:

Blame that on the vandals that kept on cutting up & vandalizing the soft cushioned seats that were featured on the earlier trains & buses. Now when new equipment comes out, we are forced to live with the hard plastic seats. :eek:

When this tower is done, it'll shine on sunny days just like the new World Trade Center in New York!!!!! :)

Here are some of the reasons why there's an atrociously long delay that's plaguing the startup of the new Acela's.

I figured that the Type 10 mockup would be put on display before the winter. :)

Thanks.
