	Boston.com / News / Local / Mass. / Groups say MBTA's search policy violates rights
		Avery and leaders of the American-Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee and the American Friends Service Committee held a news conference outside the Downtown Crossing MBTA station to announce their public awareness campaign, a precursor to their lawsuit.
		The civil rights groups said they would distribute buttons that state "I do not consent to a search" to riders at MBTA stations this week.
		MBTA Police Chief Joseph Carter said the policy, which will include explosive-sniffing dogs, was in part a response to the March 11 train bombings that killed 191 people in Spain.

		The Park Street station, as well as the Green Line, ''historically has been a haven for pickpockets,'' Bachta said.

	G.O.A.T. - MBTA Absurdity
		Obviously, the MBTA can't be held responsible for that.
		All MBTA buses now sport this highly visible sign, which I interpret to mean that passengers always enter via the front door and exit via the rear door.
		Personally, I think passes should be sold at most stations, and at least on weekends when the last or first day of the month falls on the weekend.

	Welcome to BadTransit -
		It's having the MBTA meet its obligations to justify their request, and allowing the public to weigh the evidence, comment, and have their concerns heard.
		The change in law the MBTA wanted would clear the way for their planned fare increase next January by removing a sensible requirement that's been in place for years.
		Unfortunately none of these penalties are being imposed by the MBTA, although the T is regularly and proudly announcing that their new contract has these incentives built in.

	Downtown Crossing
		The players and singers have become familiar and mostly welcome sights and sounds for subway riders (the main complaint, said one MBTA spokeswoman, is when musicians have taken forbidden smoke breaks on the platform).
		Baird was also instrumental in winning musicians the right to amplify their voices and instruments (at "a reasonable volume" according to the MBTA, and drums are not allowed), and to sell cassettes and CDs of their music on the platforms.
		musicians battled the city and the MBTA for years to establish themselves beneath the streets.

		Silver Line, the MBTA's replacement service for the Washington Street Elevated, officially redesignated the 49 bus route on July 20, 2002, and has run between Dudley and downtown ever since.
		The old station sat untouched for a while, but was eventually torn down and replaced with a simpler surface-level station, with busways oriented east-west.
		The loop allowing trains to return downtown from Dudley was kept, and a new southbound platform was added (as both original platforms were on the northbound track).

		The orange line from Oak Grove to North Station or Downtown Crossing or the red line from Braintree, Quincy Center to South Station was also popular.
		The most popular route was the red line from Davis to Downtown Crossing (Harvard, Central, Davis, and Kendall were used a lot).
		On the subway, you hear the stops, but if you are not familiar with Boston from walking in it or driving in it, you may actually picture the route like the MBTA route maps in the subway.

		At Park Street Station, Red Line riders will be trying to transfer to the Green Line, while those coming on the Green Line in from the Back Bay and points west will be scampering across the platform to get on trolleys headed for Government Center and Haymarket toward the convention site.
		Expect a lot of company on the Blue Line and the Orange Line, as commuter rail passengers transfer to those lines north of Boston as their trips are cut short because of the closing of North Station.
		It may be smarter to get out at Park Street and walk to wherever you're headed rather than transfer.

	Airport MBTA Station
		Signs are crafted by a 125 year old troll living in the depths of Boylston Station using scrap metal from Breda Type 8s and fallen debris from the peeling ceilings, and written with instruments dropped from the pockets of disgruntled commuters.
		Upon entering the station, I notice four MBTA police officers congregating around the "MBTA Police Reporting Station." I expected a police presence, due to the shooting of a pregnant woman one station away two days before and the heightened terrorist alert announced this morning.
		The previously stationed milk crates with plastic bags (for catching drips) have now disappeared, and been replaced simply with an orange cone and a yellow safety placard, advising commuters to avoid the "wet floor".
