As there appears to be no Blue Book appearing in the near future, and the last one was in 2010, I haven't been able to get a current picture of the MBTA's commuter train lengths (in passenger cars of course) during peak hours. I searched about other topics, but couldn't find anything substantial on this.
Thus, my main question is what lengths are currently being used?
And for further discussion . . . will any growth in commuter demand increase consists lengths or, in the alternative, increase frequencies. I believe there are locomotives on order, and increasing frequencies obviously offers commuters more flexibility in departure times.
