@Landoncalling19 @asergaottie @MegEBrock You have 124 followers. Whats your point? The more followers someone has correlates to intelligence or something? There’s no shitty take in that statement. Just facts. Something a lot of people in this country confuse as opinion now.

@asergaottie @MegEBrock You are a verified account with 239 followers. I’d be willing to bet your lack of popularity has something to do with your shitty takes like this.

No one cried when my business was destroyed by tyrannical lockdowns. Instead, I was explicitly told I was selfish for caring about providing for my family and not wanting to lose 10 years of work.

Attended an awesome author talk with @WardMaps Steven Beaucher of his book “Boston in Transit” at the State House Library yesterday. Amazing book with great images and information. A must buy!! #Boston #MBTA #author

@GerryCallahan Needs a promotion

Jim keyed a cybertruck in NH over the weekend. I wonder if he thinks it was worth it.

I’ve been quiet for a while, but I moved to Quincy last month. That prompted me to finally try to “digitize” (GoPro pointed at the wall) this old #8mm from opening day of the Braintree extension. Once I crop it, I’ll post on YouTube and share the link. #Boston #MBTA #Braintree

@AcelaPupLegend @Delta What is that?

@adamxii PS. Thanks again for the on air interview and exposure in 2017 for our Guiness Record.

@adamxii I listened to your last broadcast on WBCN, WFNX, RadioBDC and now your last broadcast here on Rock 92.9. You’ve been a constant to pretty much all the stations I’ve listened to over the last 18 or so years. I wish you luck and maybe I’ll hear you again somewhere.

Sorry; meant to say 10:30a-12p.

@datadyne007 Usually I do, but it didn’t even occur to me. Might’ve already been suffering heat stroke by the time I finished typing.

@CharlieOnMTA You should tag the T in this kind of tweet. They will take the train out of service especially on a day like day because of the health risk.

I love how my redline train (1634) has the heat on (or maybe the AC just isn’t on). Either way, it feels great to walk into a sauna train during this heat. Not even one stop and I’m visibly sweating.

20 minute delays because of a disabled train at Broadway. Feels good to have the red line back to normal after the shuttles of the past 2 weeks of this section.

@MBTA Will my monthly CharlieCard (not ticket) work on Zone 1A? It sounds like it doesn’t, but the monthly ticket will and that doesn’t make sense. I want to take the commuter rail near me at Uphams Corner during this shutdown like the last shutdown.

Construction of the new #Harvard station is well underway in this 1980s photo. #ThrowbackThursday #tbt #TBThursday #Boston #MBTA

This weeks #Boston #MBTA #Transit #MysteryMonday image was of the old lower southbound platform at Harvard.

Been awhile so I figured I’d throw one out. Where was this weeks #Boston #MBTA #Transit #MysteryMonday image taken? Good luck!

Did you know that streetcars used to run down Blue Hill Ave? #onthisday in 1926, a city photographer snapped this image of a Blue Hill Ave streetcar at Waverly Street. ow.ly/Hk1z50PHf55

This weeks #Boston #MBTA #Transit #MysteryMonday image was of Sullivan Square on opening day in 1975.

Where was this weeks #Boston #MBTA #Transit #MysteryMonday image taken? Good luck!

@Historicimage Sadly, I’m not familiar with the uniform dates either.

@CharlieOnMTA Was thinking the date could be firmed up by the uniforms. However, I have no knowledge at all about BERy uniforms. Will log it as c. 1910. TY!

C. 1910 (?) Boston Elevated Railway conductors. Destination sign ' City Point ' South Boston. @CharlieOnMTA Would you say roughly 1910? #historicimage #MBTA
