Might well just be resting as others have said. Hopefully people give it space.

I love these local pride takes you get in r/Boston sometimes about food. Saus is fine but it is objectively not better than most places in Canada lol. Next you'll be telling us that santarpios is world class pizza.

On buses you have to press the bell to signal that you want it to stop at your bus stop lol. Bus drivers aren't mind readers!

Right? I was amazed at how often there are power cuts after winter storms here compared to the UK. The difference is lines are buried in the UK.

If you repair something and it breaks again a few months later I wouldn't call it a "fix".

You mean the MBTA weren't honest with us? How will we ever recover from the surprise?

Please report this to the police. Even if they do fuck all about it it's another data point about an assault on a pedestrian and these need to be documented.

I'm glad there are good people around but sorry that you had this experience. I've seen a few people like this on the T lately, sadly.

Were you being paid by the word for this? "Patrons requiring passage" or passengers as they are otherwise known.

A lot of people who can afford to buy a house in a nice area of Boston will put their kids into private school so BPS not being good won't impact their decision.

Knowing the T there's no chance they'll double capacity if they do this. Probably halve it.

I'm so grateful for Transit Matters. It's hard for the T to gaslight us with "no issues" when there's clear data showing the increased journey time. The headways are also infuriating, the amount of times I get to DTX and the next Alewife trains are in 13 and 15 minutes at rush hour is infuriating.

If you don't expect extra travel time with the T you're doing it wrong.

The "weekend warrior". A car that its owners don't really need because they work from home and only drive it once a month to visit friends or do the occasional Costco run. As residential parking is so heavily subsidised in Boston they don't care their car is mostly a space saver.
