    To the jerks sitting in handicapped seats: Do the right thing, give it to someone who actually needs it.

    This is a Braintree train. Braintree train. Braintree. This train is going to Braintree. Once again, Braintree train. Braintree.

    Winter on the T is stinky. Try a little aromatherapy just under your nose before you get in.

    Leave 15 minutes ahead of you scheduled departure...better to be early than late. #signalproblems

    The red line sucks in the morning and alewife parking is most e pensive of all the mbta garages at $7 per day.

    Avoid the center cars on "big red" if you want a seat.

    Never ever park at Alewife, rash of break-ins during broad daylight, I was one of many. Their security sucks.
