can anon's stop complaining about Casinos vs the T and realize they are funded two very different ways and it just doesn't work like that.
There's a lot of reasons why the T is the way it is.. and some of it has nothing to do with money or funding.

Legislative priority: spending time fixing a broken, underfunded, poorly managed transit system vs. spending time on furthering cronyism.

Green line needs to get it's act together. It's a Monday morning and a bad way to start off the work week.

Happy fiftieth anniversary MBTA

The T sure knows how to celebrate its anniversary month.
Although, that picture is a nice glimpse just how dependent we are on the correct functioning of this ancient, creaking, underfunded, mismanaged, deteriorating transportation system...

Kind of odd that they'd even bother shuttling between Kenmore and Blandford. That's like a 2 minute walk.

If people want to walk, they can. But the shuttles would be a necessity per ADA law. Just like the 608 loop for the Government Center shutdown.

Interesting article in todays (8/18) about how NYC transit is welding rails on its subway system. This reduces derailments.

I can't find an answer either way, but I believe there's some welded rail on the MBTA subway lines.
