That's quite unbelievable! I'm forced to rely on 40-60 year old trains to get me into Boston, add in snow or just plain frigid temperatures and everything can slow to a crawl or stop all together!
Then we have idiot train operators that forget to set brakes on trains so they go flying out of the station with no one on them to control them!
So they have to cut power to the entire system to get the train to stop.
Those same trains have to go over a 112 year old bridge that someone finally realized was in need of desperate maintenance, which they are now working on.
I truly hate to think about even more people utilizing it. Unless Amazon is going to cough up a lot of money to help us fix all this I say go somewhere else!
