Blue Line set at Wonderland

[GordonFreemanD40]

they sound like our Toronto Rockets

[TheRANDOMKid9]

take off sound = beutiful

I lived in Boston for seven years. It's about time they got some new cars for the Blue line. They had to be the oldest and most run down of them all.

[MattytheDem]

@brentduanefoster some red line cars are actually older. the blue line cars ran down faster because of the salt air they've been exposed to

[brentduanefoster]

@MattytheDem Very true!!!

[MattytheDem]

@brentduanefoster the old blue and the current Orange line stock are about the same age (give or take a year or two) and were made by the same company. the red line still has some stock that is about 10 years older than the old blues.

[rawrrrrrrae]

maybe they should invest in some new green line trains, because even the older blue line trains were less noisey that the green line

[MattytheDem]

@rawrrrrrrae green line stock is all fairly new

[RobertPaniagua]

Their takeoff sound sounds just like the R160 of New York and also like WMATA's Rehab 2000 & 3000-series and the CAF/AAI 5000s and the Alstom 6000s. Same takeoff sounds nearly.

[pspguy4]

the r160 and this train uses the same propulsion.

[Mikosch2]

DBAG's ET422 also sounds not exactly but very similar

[sieman700]

was that the 0708-0711 set or 0702 0703 0712 0713 set?

[eas617]

good because the blue line really needed newer subway trains ! the old ones are so squeaky and loud when they are on the curve track at government center.

[sieman700]

acutally they new trains have been very noisey going around the curve at statestreet st goverment center and bowdin st

[AutisticPsycho]

I like the hum the new trains give off when accelerating... sounds oh so futuristic.

[adelgado75]

So true. When the Carnarsie line in Brooklyn, NYC got the new cars they made that same sound. Too bad it doesn't last. I would love to get some pictures of the new trucks before the grime gets to them.

[papadop]

Have these started operating with passengers yet?

[AmtrakFanNEC927]

yes, i think since last monday

[lifeisgrand1996]

I bet this is why they suspend blue line service at 9PM ^_^

[Redleader330]

wait, so is this a new one of the blue line?

[TLC2287]

Sweet. They resemble the silvery Red Line Cars of Boston's MBTA.

[HotGirlDater475]

Nice!

[sieman700]

ya they are their the future of the mbta

[sieman700]

the future smoother and quiter than the 0600's cars more space and automated stops with led signs

[Rackabello]

very nice, its about time the aging blue line trains were replaced. i just hope that annoying voice on the green and red lines isn't recording the next stop announcements on this one

[subway007]

soon the orange line is gonna need some updating as well

[askapalaphagy]

I Hope these don't get rusted though XD

[wildcattb5]

They can't. It's Stainless Steel.

[bmarley10]

absolutely gorgeous...imma take the blue line randomly just to be part of the experience

[electrosavant]

Beautiful. It's about time they updated the blue line.

[mespada008]

When this new Blue Line car will be on service? People has been waited for a long time.

[LetTheGreenGirlGo]

They should be in service by New Years Eve

[videonut33]

WHOA! That was fast!!!
