Does anyone know why the Arborway branch of the Green line in Boston
still runs modified PCCs instead of the new Boeing LRVs?  Do the
overhead wires not accept the pantographs?  Or is there a problem with
clearances in the tunnels?

I used to live near the northern terminus of Seattle's waterfront
streetcar line.  What a senseless waste of rolling stock.  Is anyone
besides me offended by transit lines that don't go anywhere?
