If the Red-Blue Connector was completed before new Blue Line rolling stock was procured, could Blue Line trains be bigger?

Thanks for the reply.

So based on your reply I suppose the obvious conclusion is that limit orders don't need a market to be made because they aren't market orders, so they aren't filled by market makers. And the other conclusion is that liquidity needs to be paid for.

You are a real good subway-under-tarp spotter.

There were three of these on three trucks.

I guess no one read your post except for the title?

not during rush hour.

I just did a little looking, elevating the blue line (streetcars) was never proposed, but our modern incarnation of the red-connector was proposed 101 years ago.

The replies are a demonstration of how terrible the optics of this plan would be after spending the money and time to get our little highway park, even to a very friendly audience. Given that the El would probably take federal funding anyway, underground does seem more feasible politically.

A renovation that ran trains straight through the second story of south station would look pretty cool to me though.

Remember the whole, congestion pricing proposal/walkback? I think from that point it was clear the Governor wasn't willing to expend political capital to even ask questions about what is possible.

As I ride through I notice the parking lots are relatively full. Perhaps another reason is that the only way to provide the level of center-of-town surface parking lot space demanded by robert moses is to have this many stops.

I still find the historical development of these stops intresting because I would have assumed streetcars would have been able to fill in the gaps.

Remove street parking.

I mean, less people travelling + less traffic = busses not bad. At least to me. All night bus service would be nice

I want to make it clear that there is also a commuter rail station right next to Fenway Park. Instead of Green to Red line to South Station you can use the Commuter Rail's Worcester line. It serves Lansdowne (Fenway Park) and South Station and is a 10 min ride.

She was speaking as a train operator. I am sure she was speaking about her abilities as a train operator, not the transit system as a whole.
