    Miles ragging on foamers despite very clearly harbouring foamer tendencies is the funniest thing

    • @Token_Nerd
      @Token_Nerd Před rokem +16

      The denial of being a foamer is, by definition, characteristic of being a foamer.

    I went to grad school in Boston, the sound of that broken, wavy chime is stuck in my brain forever. Seriously, I hear it in my sleep. These cars had a good run, but they were well, well overdue for retirement. Glad to see the MBTA finally moved on from them.

    • @ABCEasyas--
      @ABCEasyas-- Před 9 dny +1

      Yep, MBTA has ran those cars into the ground much later than their shelf life. The red line has even older cars. The warbling chime sounds grating to me.

      It was absolutely amazing to be there! I’ve ridden the Orange Line since the 90s, and those messed up chimes are cherished sounds in my heart. To get to hear one, one last time, surrounded by friends who also valued the chime, was so special!

    Oh my!! What a moment having the opportunity to ride the orange line subway cars for one more time. I enjoyed the enthusiasm:)
    There is another city that still runs their old subway cars for another few years. I greatly enjoyed the San Francisco Bay Area Rapid Transit (or the mighty BART Simpson train) for short.
    And yes, watching now your BART video

    So as of February 2024 there are still 48 Cars left in property. 01214/01215 Got Scrapped in February 2023. So it's only 48 Cars Left. So the T won't be Scrapping these 48. Multiple of these have been turrned on at Wellington Carhouse. So these got converted to Stactic Training Equipment. So the T hired new motorman for the Orange Line to drive the trains. So basically they will be tested on the 01200's. A couple weeks ago 01264/01265 01278/01279 Ran South of Wellington Yard, next to the Main Line. These can be seen on the Orange Line test track during sometime of the day. So be on a lookout. 106 CRRCS have been Delivered. 1400/1401 still Damged and Wrecked inside Wellington Shops. 1502/1503 still in Testing. So 102 are currently active 1402/1403 to 1500/1501 1504/1505. Keep in note that the T is actually recieving more CRRC 1900s from Springfield. 1914/1915 Delivered last week and currently in testing. The T planned to recieve 60 more by July 2024. Which will fully retire the Pullman Standard 01500's & 01600's which are currently 54 Years Old in Service. The T is apparently Overhauling the Bombardier 01800s for a 2 Year Service Extension. For the UTDC 01700s probably retiring in 2025.

    "Old" cars? Who's old? I thought these were the new cars. I remember the old 1957 cars, which were "born" a few years after I was. When I moved to Boston in 1975, there were still some 1924 cars running on the blue line. Now that's old.

    The T has unfortunately rewarded Costello Dismantling to began rescrapping the Hawker Siddeley 01200s and 01300s again. On 48 cars lead by 01294 moving all the units to the edge of Wellington, and next to them are Haulers. 01292/01293 got removed this monday

    Good riddance!!!Disgraceful that the MBTA kept these cars in service well past their prime, including one that literally caught on fire stranding passengers on a bridge over the Mystic River. As bad as these were there are clunkers running on the Red Line from when that line was extended to Quincy Center in the early 1970's. They are just now being phased out, but certainly not soon enough!
