  • How extensive is this system? And has their been a push to rid the city of the trolleys?

  • We have 4 lines left, and they will probably be around for a long long time. Boston had a much much more extensive system at one time. The main effort to destroy that took place mostly in the 1950s and 60s. What we have now is pretty much running on reservations rather than in the street.

  • If you go to the MBTA website I think that you might find a system map. We call all of our trolley lines the Green Line. First subway station in North America was Park Street Station on the Green Line. Only London built one of these things before Boston.

  • I've driven on my bike along Commonwealth Avenue once.

  • Not much fun pushing a bike up some of the hills.
