Boston’s Weird Underground Bus : Riding the Silver Line

[@ihearcrickets]

One great thing about the silver line is it's free to take it from Logan Airport into Boston. That's an alternative to having to buy a ticket to take the T from the airport

[@ihearcrickets]

The silver line drops you at South Station and it includes a free transfer to the red line train

Very nice info there!

Any Longer on that bus would've looked like you were being transported to a different plane of existence 🙂.

But this is cool I’ve never seen a busway underground I wish TTC made this

[@EphemeralProductions]

Reminds me of the metro bus tunnel in Seattle. Looks almost the same. I used to ride it all the time.

[@ActionKidExtra]

I’ve heard about the similarities to it!

[@jarihult]

In early 2023, the Dual Modes will be replaced with Hybrid (XDE60s) buses with an extended range battery. There is also a shortage of buses for the SL1/SL2/SL3. A couple of regular XDE40s from the Charlestown bus garage are temporarily running the SL1/2/3 until the new buses arrive

Very cool!

[@ActionKidExtra]

It’s definitely very unique!

[@Modeltnick]

Hi AK! It’s an odd experience to ride these but they get you where you need to go, especially the airport! Thanks for posting!

[@ActionKidExtra]

You’re welcome, thank you so much for watching!

[@malachimuhammad-dy2ow]

Turns out that the Silver Line is not even a subway. It's only an underground busway with 5 routes.

[@HengMiao]

This was interesting to see. I probably would have thought this was a quiet subway ride if you didn't show the bus exterior in the beginning. Thank you for sharing this underground bus ride, AK! 🤗🚌

[@ActionKidExtra]

You would think it’s a subway ride

[@janicesanders9981]

If the security is on point, these will service a lot of people.

[@michaelchin3550]

Interesting.

[@ActionKidExtra]

Very!

[@patrickcarey393]

Did he ever return no he never returned and his fate is still unlearned. He may ride forever neath the streets of Boston he is the man who never returned. Poor old Charlie.

[@oceana9294]

Thanks for the reminder of that great record, yep, back in the day it was records all the way.🤗

[@ActionKidExtra]

Charlie is lost!

It's really pleasing that we no longer need those stupid face coverings (...); you need to be able to see where you're putting your feet as you go up and down the steps.
