Somebody needs some help!

One of these ads is from the Red Line and one is from the Orange Line. Can you match the ad to the line? Answer after the jump.

Emi Hammond tweets:

A cop just warned me not to use my cell on the orange line because people have been grabbing them and running lately.

The Food Monkey considers those ads now gracing some stations (such as Government Center and Back Bay) with the chef sneering at the Pepsi drinkers of the world:

... It seems that Chef Colicchio suggests pairing your diet coke with something that appears a burger/seafood paella hybrid, with a pile of polenta covered in ketchup as a side. I am most glad to see this, as up until this time, I had believed myself to be alone in my Diet Coke and paella burger dining practices. ...

Speaking of T ads, what's up with the schizophrenia at South Station, which can't decide if it should promote Macs or Windows?

Because this evening, both are providing something less than the "enjoyable transportation experience" the T now hopes riders have.

You know, so if, say, a drunken woman has just fallen on the tracks, the operator can apply the brakes immediately. They'll be using wireless-mesh technology (basically, lots of little wireless access ports all over the place) to give drivers real-time views (in Seoul's case, the impetus was not somebody lying on the tracks, but a train that entered a station just as another train was being engulfed in an arson fire).

UPDATE: The video made the news around the world. See examples in the comments.

Maybe the author of this Missed Connection will have more luck than the reporters who tried finding Our Lady of the Pit on Twitter yesterday.

Still from an MBTA surveillance video just as the train stopped.

Channel 4 posts copies of three separate MBTA videos (three? Yes, three) of the woman falling off the platform - looks like one of the people waving at the oncoming train almost fell on the tracks himself.

Onlookers waving at the train to get the driver to stop:

The Boston Fire Department ordered power shut on the Orange Line between State Street and Downtown Crossing shortly after 10 p.m. when smoke appeared in the State Street station. Power was restored not long after when firefighters discovered the smoke was coming from one particular train, not another track fire, according to Boston Fireman and Local 718.
