Boston (Mass) T Snapshots2

A selection of views filmed in summer 1998 showing Boylston, Government Center and Park Street subway stations on the Boston (Mass) T Green Line.

I tried to film at Copley too, but a transit official saw me and said no.

Transit officials stopping you from filming. What is their problem? it is a tourist attraction, as well as infrastructure that is needed.

@gmcbuses its a problem at many stations here in Britain too - sometime petty officials even demand that you delete all photos taken there, however they are not allowed to do this - indeed even the police cannot do this - as only a judge sitting in a court of law can order the destructioin of property. And since taking photos at stations is not illegal the chances of that happening are virtually zero.

(but dont use the flashgun, as that can cause a safety hazard)

This is so old, haha. The woman's voice on the PA. No Type 8 cars. A lot of 1 car trains. Fans in Boylston (I think those are gone, but I don't know why). Turnstile fare-gates. Few advertisements on the sides of trains. And rollsigns instead of LCD displays.

Thanks for sharing this ol' gem.

LRVs WOW! I have seen them in SFs MUNI system. Does anyone know if they are still running? The last station in this video is Park Street
