Having realized that the two automatic greasers on the trolley loop at Ashmont are almost useless at getting grease spread throughout the loop and reducing the screech from cars going through the loop, the T installed last weekend an even more advanced system for lubricating the rails.
They installed an automatic sprinkler system around the loop.
For about $20 worth of materials from Home Depot, they could've just had an inspector grease the loop by hand every morning. Instead they wasted a couple thousand $$ on this nonsense, plus whatever the added water bill is going to be.
