Who'd think a train to the Patriots game could cause so much trouble? But let's follow the tweets:
At 4:40, Jon Fournier tweets from Back Bay:
Stuck behind Patriots train. Chaos at Back Bay. Lv it to T to make smthng so simple so freakin' complicated.
At 5:11, Fournier gets out this word:
Herd of patriots fans boards Franklin train in Dedham. Told to get off at Walpole & "wait for train."
At 5:21, Ben Jackson explains:
Just got an alert. Pats train skipping stations due to overcrowding. Another train is coming later for those stations.
At 5:25, David Stopforth posts a photo of Pats refugees at a waystation somewhere in Walpole.
Comments
at least people are using the pats trains
Instead of drinking and driving. It's impressive also that they put another train into service to deal with the crowds.
