Subway Stories - Old School
I've been admiring these old trains for years. They are located on the Green Line at the Boylston T stop. I found a website with some interesting articles and photos.
The MBTA (Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority) or the "T" used to be called the MTA (Metropolitan Transit Authority) as you can see on the train, which is behind a caged enclosure. I stood in front of the cage taking pictures for about five minutes. The light was low and I'm still using the camera phone, so the pictures are not as good as they could be.
In a previous post, I mentioned the controversy surrounding photography on the T. A few weeks ago, I was on the Green line and a conductor announced that no picture taking was allowed on the T. The saga continues...

starry nights - Hello! Thanks for stopping by!
mosilager - What a great momento to have of your travels! I hadn't even thought about the picture taking thing at the airport. I definitely wouldn't want to push my luck, especially flying out of Logan.
nance - Well, I'm prepared to push the envelope taking these pictures. It's nice knowing that the ACLU is aware of the issue also.
I took some pictures of the green line.
Those pictures of yours of the old red line are really awesome.
I liked your blog . . :)
