I haven't verified it myself but from <a href="https://sites.harvard.edu/~wuensch/T/subway-map.html">maps like this one</a> it looks like the T just isn't publishing real-time vehicle data for the Red Line at all, which means nobody who's not willing to hang around a T station for an hour or so can find this out.<br /><br />The good news is that the conductors on the Fitchburg line seem to have gotten the memo that <a href="https://www.mbta.com/diversions/weekday-red-line-service">any CharlieCard will get you to Porter</a>, and the 5:55 Wachusett train had lots of open seats leaving North Station. But, the walk from South Station to North Station is just a little bit longer than I think it is, which is an issue if the 5:35 train leaves on time.<br /><br /><img src="https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=dmaze&ditemid=184761" width="30" height="12" alt="comment count unavailable" style="vertical-align: middle;"/> comments tag:dreamwidth.org,2017-04-15:3084298:180337 2018-01-14T02:55:14Z 2018-01-14T02:55:14Z public 2 Incidents of either dead trains or track problems extracted from <a href="http://www.universalhub.com/mbta">http://www.universalhub.com/mbta</a> ...where it is impressive that the editor can still come up with dead train rhymes.<br /><br /><table border="border"> <thead> <tr><th></th><th>Su</th><th>M</th><th>T</th><th>W</th><th>Th</th><th>F</th><th>Sa</th></tr> </thead> <tbody> <tr> <th>Dec 2017</th> <td>17</td> <td>18 <span style="background: orange; color: black">O</span> <span style="background: red; color: white">R</span></td> <td>19 <span style="background: green; color: white">G</span> <span style="background: orange; color: black">O</span> <span style="background: red; color: white">R</span></td> <td>20</td> <td>21 <span style="background: orange; color: black">O</span></td> <td>22 <span style="background: orange; color: black">O</span></td> <td>23</td> </tr> <tr> <td></td> <td>24</td> <td>25</td> <td>26</td> <td>27 <span style="background: red; color: white">R</span></td> <td>28 <span style="background: red; color: white">R</span> <span style="background: red; color: white">R</span> <span style="background: red; color: white">R</span> <span style="background: red; color: white">R</span></td> <td>29 <span style="background: green; color: white">G</span> <span style="background: orange; color: black">O</span> <span style="background: orange; color: black">O</span></td> <td>30 <span style="background: green; color: white">G</span> <span style="background: green; color: white">G</span> <span style="background: orange; color: black">O</span> <span style="background: red; color: white">R</span></td> </tr> <tr> <th>Jan 2018</th> <td>31</td> <td>1 <span style="background: green; color: white">G</span></td> <td>2</td> <td>3 <span style="background: green; color: white">G</span> <span style="background: red; color: white">R</span></td> <td>4</td> <td>5 <span style="background: blue; color: white">B</span> <span style="background: green; color: white">G</span> <span style="background: orange; color: black">O</span> <span style="background: red; color: white">R</span></td> <td>6 <span style="background: orange; color: black">O</span> <span style="background: red; color: white">R</span></td> </tr> <tr> <td></td> <td>7</td> <td>8 <span style="background: green; color: white">G</span> <span style="background: orange; color: black">O</span> <span style="background: red; color: white">R</span> <span style="background: red; color: white">R</span></td> <td>9 <span style="background: green; color: white">G</span></td> <td>10 <span style="background: red; color: white">R</span> <span style="background: red; color: white">R</span></td> <td>11 <span style="background: green; color: white">G</span></td> <td>12 <span style="background: orange; color: black">O</span> <span style="background: red; color: white">R</span></td> <td>13</td> </tr> </tbody> </table><br /><br />(Manually extracted.
