    Just commenting on the Red Line only... For all the years I have been a rider there have been numerous incidents and delays and I could go on and on. Everyone has experienced this line and all the others in the City of Boston is the oldest subway in the county that needs to address its issues and even though they seem to be, it's still not enough to keep our riders safe and in time. I just have to say I was on the new Red Line Cars today and I was impressed how clean and its signage easily displayed and the announcements were clear! I think they need to do a lot of house cleaning of its MBTA EMPLOYEES and have lots of staff visually around the station and platforms I did not see anyone near the Charlie Card Kiosk for those who need assistance or anyone on the platform even though the were cameras. Still I am ver hard pressed to give the new Management a good report card, especially when the latest high management Resigned. I can only comment on my trips on the Red Line, being alone at times on platforms for awhile and entering the cars itself. SAFETY FIRST SHOULD BE MBTA's NEW PROGRAM AND BE MINDFUL OF ALL THOSE RIDERS THAT DEPEND ON YOU ON A DAILY BASIS.

    I like the Boston's subway system. It works well! First one in the country, so the trains are old,…read morethey're squeaky but cool and take you where you need. Some stations don't have AC, just big fans and it's part of the charm for me. Park St is an important hub. You can stop here for Boston Common and other downtown destinations. You can change here for red or other green directions. It is a tad confusing, sometimes there's staff around. But you can manage. Trains arrive fast and I could have gotten the hang of them better longer I stayed. It makes it easy to get around town and Park st was a stop we used a lot for visiting or changing to other lines.

    Even a devout atheist will find a recitation necessary upon arriving at the Park Street T station:…read more"Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil; For You are with me; Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me." I have not had the pleasure of visiting the valley of the shadow of death, but I have been told it is not unlike this T station. The screech of Green Line rolling stock scratching their rails; the wail of children in pain; the stench of a thousand decaying rats; the reddish brown splattering of feces on the wall; the endless tunnels and crevices wet with moisture and tears. They do not comfort me. Woe unto you, ye souls depraved! Its location is not inconvenient. A hop and a skip and a jump from: - the Tremont Street Burger King, - the Granary Burying Ground, - the Boston Common Frog Pond, - the AMC Boston Common 19, - the Washington Street Marshalls, - the Suffolk Dental Group, - the Robert Gould Shaw and the 54th Regiment Memorial. A true horror it would be to find oneself trapped in the Park Street T station. You step off the last train and the doors are already locked. Your dreams will be haunted by the screech of Green Line rolling stock scratching their rails; the wail of children in pain; the stench of a thousand decaying rats; the reddish brown splattering of feces on the wall; the endless tunnels and crevices wet with moisture and tears. The Park Street T station is best visited with the greatest amount of transience manageable, and even better avoided.

    One of the oldest stations in USA! Boston's MBTA is the first one built in the country, so that's…read morecool! Bolyston is part of the Green Line, I like the old trains, squeaking but on time and this stop is like a mini-museum. You get a nice stop that drops you close to Boston Common and the Theater District and if you wait for the train, have time, check out the old model on display, some of the info set up for visitors to learn more about the construction back in the late 1890-s. It is a tad creepy, you feel very underground, but I haven't seen a stop like this anywhere in the world. One of a kind!

    An excellent station that is generally kept clean, except for a few mice running around the tracks…read more The tunnel Between Boylston and Park Street is the oldest continuously operating subway tunnel in the U.S. and sill used by every Green Line train. Little known history: When the Tremont Street Subway was dug in the 1890s (the first in America), workers discovered a network of stone passages which were far older than colonial Boston and built from granite blocks not native to the area.  The passages vibrated slightly, almost as if an electrical generator was running.  After one tracklayer dissapeared, chief engineer Howard A. Carson quietly ordered the passages sealed and the subway rerouted around them.  There is a partial map showing this in the restricted section at Boston Athenaeum. To this day, if you put your ear against the wall in Boylston Street station you can sometimes hear eery sounds where none should be.
