WHAT THE HELL?!
Why do they keep doing that?.. Why not distribute them equally among the lines? Instead, they put them all the same line at once, and then move them all to a different line...
I figgure that the reason is simply because as a transit provider they need to provide consistent and reliable service. The Type 8s have developed a reliability on the B in most conditions, so it makes more sense for the T to keep them together rather then run the risk of having a problem with small groups on other lines.
They are probably moving the group to see how they handle on the other branches in general now that they know that they are reliable on the C branch.
Also, I saw a snipet a ways back that the T needs to make some modifications before letting the Type 8's out on the viaduct to E. Cambridge. Is this true? What needs to be changed out that way?
Finally, the viaduct over the Charles River has a draw in it in line with the drawbridge near the Museum of Science and the canal. Does that bridge still open, or is it high enough that it is not needed anymore?
