Update: Yes, it is a bit early for baby ducks. The duck was an adult female hooded merganser.
David Yamada took a screen capture of a Green Line delay message at 9:36 a.m. today:
Make way for ducklings! I am happy to deal with that service delay.

Trolley Problem
A different sort of trolley problem.
Adorable.
Bad link
The link to "The duck" leads to an account that has nothing at all related to this article. Perhaps the post of the duck photo has been deleted??
Sorry, try the link now
I mistakenly linked to the poster's overall Twitter/Whatever feed, not to the specific post showing the duck. Fixed.
What have we come to ...
... when even ducks lie about their age?
Another t failure. Nothing
Another t failure. Nothing new.
...what do you propose the T have done here instead?
Not really sure how they're supposed to avoid "animal stuck in tracks".
Just imagine if the headline
Just imagine if the headline were "Green Line trolley runs over baby duck", there'd be an angry mob outside of 10 Park Plaza.
Make way for trolleys.
(Adam, how did you miss that one?)
