Shiny and new tracks don't do much good when a shiny new train just dies and then won't be budged, as happened this morning at Chinatown, where one of the new Orange Line trains despaired of life and just died and then T workers ran into problems removing the carcass. The T is now telling riders to take the Green Line downtown instead - or if they're further out, hop on commuter rail at Oak Grove, Malden Center, Forest Hills, Ruggles or Back Bay.

There was another dead train at Forest Hills around 8, but that was shunted to the yard without causing this much chaos.
New T, meet the old T.
It’s never fun when the T is delayed.

The good news is that the slow zones were eliminated. The bad news is that every day there is one or more switch problems, signal problems, or disabled trains. Some problems are reported on the T app or website.

1) The T is no reliable
2) The T is not safe
3) The T is not clean
4) The T is going off the fiscal cliff
