The Green line - E (Boston, Somerville: house, theater, living)

[timberline742]

I think I've had two to three instances of having to wait for a second train to get on at Sullivan in 4+ years. Not so shabby, and that's at prime time commute, around 7:30-8:00 am.

Nice way to define the entire Orange Line by two stops (Roxbury Crossing and Ruggles). Those two stops cause all the unreliability, dirtiness, and creepy characters.

Yeah, right.

The Orange Line can be a little scruffy at various points, but it's basically fine. The Red Line is nice around Harvard Square ( of course), and Porter and Davis Squares. I've never been crazy about Central Square, but it's a common add on/drop off point.

The Green Lines going into Newton are the most scenic, especially the D-Line. Riding the Green-B line can be an exercise in frustration, as progress can be a bit slow.

In that order. But the interval between the first 3 and the B is large IMO, i.e. stay away from the B.

pretty spot on.

Huh, the B is the one I take the most, as it goes where I want to go, it has the best neighborhoods. Can be slow from students though.

Stops too close, students too slow and inconsiderate. Easily the slowest line. Goes to Harvard and Comm Ave in Allston, but I'd honestly prefer the 57 to Harvard and Brighton. Though that is not fun either.

I prefer C - it is faster and goes to Coolidge Corner, Washington Square, Cleveland Circle.

More like 5 stops of sketchy things happening, although I should have included JP.

Roxbury Crossing, Ruggles, Jackson Square, Stony Brook, Green Street.

What is over there? I guess the Coolidge Corner Theatre has some cool stuff if you're into movies.
