Just got back from Boston today and had my first ride on Commuter Rail (Worcester/Framingham line) and on Orange, Green lines.
Some observations:
-On Commuter Rail, why is there at least one car on each train that is no open to passengers? (crew only)
-Why is there very limited service west of Framingham on commuter rail?
-Some of the Orange Line cars have severe rust, as well as the Type 7s. Are they carbon (LAHT) steel?
-The Orange Line stations have a unique warning chime that warnings riders of approaching trains.
-When entering stations, the 01200 cars do not have headlights on, but show red tail lights.
