    it's very surreal watching one of your videos and actually recognizing the trains and stations you're at. Nice to see videos of my local, historical, yet flawed subway system. I can also say this is one of the only videos I've seen of the new Red Line trains. Great video!

      Yes! I grew up riding the Red line to either Kendall or Central Square from Park Street, after taking the commuter train into North Station to be followed by a ride on the Green line to Park Street, to visit my grandmother in Cambridge. It was this ride that gave me the love for railroads and most anything on rails.
      When I did this, the "T" was still running the Blue Birds and PCC Trolleys, and the B&M was running Budd Liners. When the "T" brought in the "new" silver-colored Red line cars in the late 1960s, I was excited because I could sit in the front and watch the tunnel and the tracks.

    0:22 That Compressor start-up sounds so similar to some of the SMEE cars here in New York City Transit. Most similar, the R46s.

    Made me smile seeing the destination as Braintree. I live not too far from Braintree, but in the county of Essex in the UK. 😄

      Boston has English names all over. Right across the Charles river from Boston is Cambridge.

    Weird how the CRRC cars’ traction inverters are different pitches when accelerating vs. decelerating

      why it's so weird for the 2020s trains vs 1960-1990s train

    It’s interesting that CRRC made literally the exact same updated fleet for both the Red Line, and the Orange Line, plus using newer Frank Ogelsby recordings for announcements.

    I've ridden the Red Line many years ago to/from Andrew Station when Ashmont was the southern terminal. An aunt of mine lived in Dorchester.

    The CRRC Car's have been an absolute nightmare. They continue to fall further and further behind with the delivery process. They have only two sets of trains running on the Red Line, with the final delivery set for maybe sometime in 2027. The original Pullman Standard Car's built in 1969 are going to have to keep running until then. They were overhauled in the mid 80's, but the aluminum bodies are not going to hold up forever. Same for the 1700 series built in the 80's. They never gave the Bombardier 1800 series a midlife overhaul. A lousy situation for sure.

    • @tomwujek4867
      @tomwujek4867 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The CRRC factory is not doing well with many issues on quality assurance and production. Also, the Boston Globe reported that they were actually turning in unfinished cars for final inspection. At this point, it's anyone's guess on what will happen. If it were up to me, I would strongly consider giving the 1800 series Bombardier cars a midlife overhaul and contract with a well known company such as Alstom (now owns Bombardier), Kawasaki, Siemens, etc.

    I really hate the new redline trains, seats are fewer and really uncomfortable. Some have bars that press right into your back. The single seats have u squashed between a metal wall and plexiglass with about two feet of space, so claustrophobic, every plastic seat is hard and uncomfortable. What were they thinking!!
