On both Green and Red, trains turn up dead

A deceased trolley near Boylston is playing hob with the Green Line (an hour or so after another trolley flatlined on the E Line); a train is pushing up daisies at Alewife on the Red Line.

Where the f..k are these new red and orange line trains. Are they here yet?
Where is my free train rides, where this party train and music, where my free food and drinks at a train station or train.
Look the MBTA owe the traveling public some type of reimbursement for this continuous failed public transit system. There has to be a contractual breach to the public. Can get some type of class action lawsuit going.

The new trains have not started being built yet. It will be mid 2019 before the new Orange and Red Line trains are coming into service. The manufacturing facility in Springfield, MA is not yet finished being built. I agree things should be better, but when you are using rolling stock that is decades past its useful life without rebuild facilities in place, things are going to fail.
