What XD wow this is bad XD This is the MBTA? You'd think they'd at least, idk, build a station XD
Is that some sort of temporary platform? XD
no, it's the official one, and I wish this were the only MBTA commuter rail station for which this is true
I live in rural North Carolina and this makes even our derpiest small town stations look amazing Gosh, Boston, you're supposed to be one of the biggest American cities XD what is this mess? That looks like a third world country
you should see what the stations in other American commuter rail networks look like; the newest built ones are usually in best condition but they're still embarrassingly spartan
North Carolina has no commuter rail afaik, just 16 stations in the entire state vs 138 (+ 1 seasonal) stations on the Boston commuter rail
I guess that's fair. Yeah, we currently don't have any, though they're trying to improve Amtrak service between Charlotte and Raleigh and I think Charlotte's trying to get a commuter rail up through Huntersville, Raleigh and Durham are trying to get one that connects each other
But both commuter rail plans don't seem to be going anywhere right now due to political opposition- Charlotte's would go through a bunch of small towns that seem to be against it, Raleigh and Durham's seems to be closer to the go ahead but stuck financially
