ugh, just so annoyed. I've been having trouble with my hips recently and this morning was extra painful. train pulls up and only the front doors with steps open, so I pushed the accessible door button on the outside. I pushed it about 4 times. train starts and pulls off. I am so sorry to any more often disabled folks if this is a regular occurrence and not a one off fluke

I reported on see say but if you’re at north station looking for forest hills the sign is wrong.

30 minute wait for a bus at rush hour? When is the T going back to buses every 10 mins?

They're asking about how passengers access schedule information. Maybe a deeper accessibility layer involved?

I use the online timetable almost exclusively. Google maps is cool, but sometimes lags behind after schedule updates. I just wish delays and track changes informed the online timetable. Like maybe adjusted the time and put it in red if a delay alert is up for that trip? Or used a little red track change icon at stations where unscheduled track changes are happening?

I've also been using MBTA Go, but don't fine it's UI or UX really intuitive. I wish I could just SEE where trains are on a selected line instead of having to select a specific trip.

I stopped relying on paper schedules, and even the schedule posters in stations... They won't be good until everything replaced by screens or e-ink and can update as quickly as the website. Or until we get some magic Hogwarts paper.

Posting this to ask if anyone’s tried out the new transfer system, or if there were any hiccups. I’d love to know if anyone entered the wrong track side at Boylston or similar stations, and used it to get on the correct side after exiting the fare gates.

Also, I’d love to know if anyone tested the limits, i.e., transferred across multiple buses and subway lines, or walked from anywhere between Back Bay and State on the Orange Line to anywhere between Prudential and Government Center on the Green Line, or vice versa, instead of waiting for Haymarket or North Station. I’m also curious if anyone got out somewhere to stop at a store quickly, then returned to where you got out, and moved along.

TLDR: I’m curious if anyone utilized the new transfer system to make free transfers the old system didn’t allow for. I’m planning on testing it out myself tomorrow, but I’m curious what everybody else experienced on Day 1.

Once upon a time, a person could easily board the D line at North Station without hoping to squeeze on. Remember those days when it was the first stop? Now that they have extended the D line to Medford/Tufts when it shows up North Station it is jam packed. It is possible to squeeze on most of the time, but then there is not room for others from there on until we get to Kenmore when the passengers unload.

Is the T considering a way to improve this? Honestly, I think the train operators are more frustrated than the passengers because it delays everything with people trying to squeeze on.

why does this community require body text...hi there!

The current practice of having a second operator sitting in the dark cab of the second vehicle in Green Line trains doing absolutely nothing is atrocious and wasteful. No other light rail system worldwide does this and it's totally unnecessary.

While it's likely subject to negotiation in labor agreements, it is a ridiculous practice that should be ended, and there has to be some way to do that, whether by attrition or buyouts or moving the employees to other roles like increased off peak service levels or fare enforcement and customer service.

Is there any valid reason to have a second operator? Do they perform any function at all?
