More frequent, cleaner, and quieter trains coming in 2028, this is legitimately exciting (and I selfishly can’t wait to see this on the North Station lines!) https://www.wcvb.com/article/mbta-approves-plan-electrify-trains-on-fairmount-commuter-rail-line/61701725?utm_campaign=snd-autopilot&fbclid=IwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTEAAR2AwXty_oDmsiTiTEEo4RF3K61qxPQ02eb5Wk_YE0dh0e69Nu71c1_YI0k_aem_rwIutZGVs1CdtVAvla3mcg

this is an EV deployment that I’m excited without reservation about

I just wish the MBTA wasn't so allergic to wires. Fairmount is so short, using battery trains seems absurd when you could just wire up the line and then be able to buy normal, off the shelf electric trains instead of making everything an experimental pilot with unproven technology.
