2 new MBTA 01800 red line trains at Park Street

The Alewife-bound train approaches and the Braintree/Ashmont bound train approaches.
Same thing happens in the 2nd portion except both trains are departing. Enjoy

The 01800s are still my favorite subway cars on the T even though the new Blue Line cars are here. I wonder if the T will ever purchase anything with an Alstom Onix propulsion system...That would be an interesting sight to see.

For me, I hate the Alstom Onix propulsion. I wouldn't dare to ride a train with an Alstom Onix propulsion(in N.Y. and D.C...) And the propulsion of the 01800's is wonderful... I like the 0700s more now then when they'll eventually get really popular... this propulsion is the best. The green line type 8 is the same goodness.

i liked it better when park street was pahk street and haymarket was haymahket

[jdgator95]

I've noticed that too, same thing with the new blue line train signs.

If this is around rush hour, it must be right before or right after. You know how these trains in boston get at rush hour. Way more crowded that you can imagine.
