Darkened train

Mary McVeigh took this photo around 4:50 p.m. from her seat on the 811 train to Providence. The train that stopped all of a sudden when the engine died 30 minutes earlier. The train with no lights or heat. But, she adds:

At least we can watch the snow fall.

I'd kinda like a "dark car" akin to a quiet car. Maybe combine them. So you can rest your eyes while riding.

With heat, of course.

It's always so peaceful when the lights go out. It's like being in a movie theater-- people even talk more quietly on their cell phones.

I can tell you take Commuter Rail because you don't call it the Commuter Rail. I've always wondered where the the went.

I believe the pride of Wellesley High School had something to say about this.
