    I will miss the old lechmere station. It was old but had character. The sound of the screeching as the trains turned around, the old canopy with wrought iron rivets. Alot of memories there waiting to catch a train to the red Sox with my mom as a kid.

      I totally agree, that station had so much charm to it. The new one is great but its also like all the others

    Awesome video! I loved how you can see the skyline of Boston and the sunrise from the Lechmere Viaduct.

    Great video! I’m from the Bay Area and watching this makes me wish Muni metro had as much dedicated track as the green line. The elevated sections were really cool as well.

    I never went to Beantown, this is a best station almost couple years after the old lechmere station is out of order. We got the union Sq station in Manhattan. Type 3 trolleys is just like R142A, R143 & R188 in NYC. That's a great video

    This is a very nice video. I knew the fact that at union square station there’s a bell that indicates that trains is ready to leave so I’ve notice that

    I took the extension yesterday. It was kind of boring and didn't have much to look at. Also apparently I was supposed to "validate" my ticket but no one explained it to me and I had no idea. Not well thought out. I do think it is great that they did this and I would like to see better commuter options for people to live outside of the Metro Boston area.

      @@BostonByRails Depends on your program. Looks like you may have just rotated letters rather than get the text truly reflected. But it looks fine as is - just being picky :)

      @BostonByRails  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Exactly! I think its so wild that the E line goes from the T’s oldest infrastructure (the mission park street running) to the modern greenline extension
