That's a nice way to say "whines," Adam.

I believe that with 66 total trains on Monday (including the Lake Shore Limited), it will be the busiest day on the Worcester Line since some time in the 1950s; in 1952 there seems to have been about 60 trains per day, in 1950 more like 68.

If the state ever runs more than one train a day to Springfield, regular service could match this.
