Out of the mouths of babes, Green Line Extension edition

Tim D. reports on a Green Line experience that is both funny and sad at once:

On Sunday, I was taking the Tufts Green Line inbound, where it runs along the bike path.

Near me were a couple 5 years olds, who decided we were racing a couple who was walking along the path.

"We're winning!" the kids shouted as the train momentarily sped up. "Now they're winning" they shouted as the pedestrians pulled ahead of us.

Parts of the brand-spanking new Green Line Extension already in such bad shape that trains in some spots crawl slower than most people can walk.
