Does anyone know what the T's official policy is for free Sunday guests when they are running Sunday service on a day other than Sunday?
The monthly passes clearly say that you get a free guest until the end of Sunday service (at least the old ones did, CharlieTicket passes do not list any detailed information). A few years ago, an Orange Line T employee first told me that I got a free guest whenever Sunday service was running.
Since then, I have been able to get a free guest without fail on the Orange and Red Lines (including these last 2 Mondays), but the Green Line attendants have always refused the guest. I have tried it at both manned (Kenmore & Gov't Ctr) and un-manned (Symphony) stations, but have been turned down every time. I have not yet had reason to ride the Blue Line during one of these holiday schedules, so I do not know how they handle it.
Why do the Green Line attendants treat the holiday schedule differently from the other lines? Has anyone else had similar experiences?
