Blue Line car spotted on 95
By Phantom on Tue, 12/16/2008 - 7:32pm
I saw an amazing sight while driving down 95 South, near Burlington. Coming down 95 North was a Blue Line subway car! It took me a minute to realize that it was being hauled by a truck. Who knew that the blue line cars would ever appear on route 95?

Saw some on the Pike, too
I've seen a couple of them on flatbed trucks going eastbound on the Mass Pike, a couple of mornings over the past few months, too.
Always Odd...
... to see trains where you don't expect them.
I remember being a teenager, hanging on the Central Avenue bridge in Lower Mills - blowing a joint with my juvenile delinquent buddies - and seeing a flatbed go by on River Street with a Red Line train on it.
Far out, man.

yeah, I have seen them
yeah, I have seen them several times heading east on the Pike in the early morning.
Slight irony there
Burlington is one of the few towns in Eastern Massachusetts never to have had a railroad running through it. Though it did have a streetcar line that ran up Winn, Center and Cambridge streets from about 1900-1921...
Most likely new Blue line
Most likely new Blue line cars en route to Orient Heights carhouse from Siemens Transportation in NY
