It seems like only yesterday that the T shut down service past North Station, doesn't it? The T reports trolley service all the way to Lechmere is scheduled to resume the weekend of Nov. 5.

So the T can install an elevator at Park Street. Look for shuttle buses instead.

The T says Green Line service through Park Street will be unaffected.

Granted, it was made of paper, but no matter: Local residents and officials held a mock groundbreaking tonight for the Green Line extension, now scheduled to arrive in Somerville sometime over the next century or so. The Somerville Transportation Equity Partnership posts photos.

There's a guy with a crossbow on the Green Line, car 3635 #SeeSomethingSaySomething #PleaseReportAnySuspiciousActivity

The Medford Green Line Neighborhood Alliance posts e-mail from Boloco honcho John Pepper about the Boston Avenue Boloco:

We opened our Medford restaurant 5 years ago in great part due to the knowledge that the Green Line was "coming" and would add vitality to Boston Ave. We heard it could be 4-5 years which sounded crazy at the time. Sadly, we’ve recently decided not to renew our lease and we'll be out November 30.

Felicia likes to look around as she rides the trolley and imagine which people would fill which roles:

Sometimes I get lucky and there's a Sayid– or even better, a Sawyer/Sayid combo.

Other times I hope the clunky Green line keeps it together until I get home, 'cause I don’t want to be stuck in THAT storyline.

The MBTA says it hopes to have all trains, buses and ferries running on normal weekday schedules first thing Monday morning.

The one possible problem: The Riverside Line, hard hit with track-seeking trees and limbs that came down in impressive numbers, in some cases landing on overhead wires on their way down.

"Crews are working very hard to have the Riverside Line ready for the morning commute," the T said in a statement."
