MBTA disasters bring frosty Bostonians together, if only for a moment. Disabled cars and 'signal problems' give people a common struggle. Suddenly the guy who wouldn't even move his back pack has a chance to be a hero by finding the shuttle bus, which for some reason is never really "right outside the station". If a major disaster ever does hit the T your best chance of survival lies not with some sluggo in an orange vest but with some kid who knows the back way out of Downtown Crossing.

Granted, this delay doesn't seem like the MBTA's fault.
But it's a perfect example of how fed up people are with the T's bullshit.
Very Well Put
Has there ever been a single year when you have not heard of a T disaster or mishap?
For example: The most recent Orange and Red Line fires!
Land of the Free?
Oh, right, like the folks that left the New Orleans disaster on their own steam were "unauthorized." That's the old pioneer spirit!
