That fare box looks very much like the fare boxes in the buses.

@tpirman1982 I think they are about the same, I could be wrong though.

[jdgator95]

No I couldn't have, I asked to ride around the loop and the operator said no.

2:13 and 2:55 looks like the same train

[jdgator95]

@zyzlnwh Oops! Correcting myself, you are right. There will be an extention beond Lechmere, but the MBTA will re-locate Lechmere. Actually, as of now, I think the old Lechmere is now closed for good.

@zyzlnwh That's not true. Infact, the MBTA is planning on an EXTENTION beond Lechmere. It's defenetally NOT going away any time soon.

Lechmere Station is about to become history. Any1 with a camera, please document every inch of that area. Once it is gone...it's gone forever! ... Just like North Station & Sullivan Square.
