Riding the Boston Subway (The T) from Malden Center to Downtown Crossing

[@lvdawnll8166]

This brings back memories...the orange line from Malden is the only subway train I ever rode back in the early 80s! Thanks AK!

[@SamSitar]

my preferred transit route for the Malden Econolodge.

Nice to see another train video!!

Glad you enjoyed it

It’s getting cold 🥶☃️⛈

[@mmccartney6579]

Wow...I do believe this is the first video I have seen of ActionKid's where he spoke nary a word!! Cheers!! :)

Fact: in the old days, the orange line was home to an L that ran on the outer parts of the city, similar to Chicago, Philadelphia, and of course New York. Sadly, in the late 80s, as part of a modernization project, the L was closed and demolished then rerouted to other parts in the North with modern infrastructure and to the Southwest Corridor down South which runs next to the electrified railroad tracks for the Commuter Rail and Amtrak trains; the underground portion remains the same with modernizations, renovations, and renamings. Assembly station is the only infill station on the T's rapid transit system; it opened in 2014 and the Silver Line routes SL4 and SL5 replace the southern section of the former L.

Thanks for the info!

@@ActionKid That leaves The City of Brotherly Love, The Windy City, and the Big Apple the only cities in America with surviving L line networks.

It really is!

Always love your videos.

Subways are such a great way to travel around the city. 🚉 🤗 Thank you for sharing this ASMR subway ride, AK! It was nice to hear the train car moving on the rail. 😃

[@ActionKid]

Glad you enjoyed

[@Gemashke]

These old subway trains are such garbage. It was time for a complete overhaul and Boston delivered...it's a shame the new trains aren't fully operational yet. Excellent video regardless, Actionkid!!

[@dvferyance]

I agree I like the DC subway much better. It's far more modern.

[@ShelAZ11]

Really nice video AK, thank you!

Thanks 👍

[@thinkbeforeyoutype7106]

They’ve the NEW trains now, I don’t know why they still use these ones.

[@ihearcrickets]

They're in the process of replacing them, and there were some issues that needed to be fixed so they had to go back to the old ones for a bit

[@thinkbeforeyoutype7106]

@@ihearcrickets Thanks for the update.

[@ActionKid]

I've ridden the new ones before, they're really nice!

Very cool video AK. Think of how many farts, etc those seats have endured.

Thank you AK 😊🙏

Goodmorning love ❤️ Boston have fun happy Wednesday

Same P.A. as on NYC subways where nobody has a clue what the person is saying. : )

[@texman8150]

They say that we all get 15 minutes of fame in our lifetime. Little did the guy in the Red Sox baseball cap, sitting across from AK, know that he was going to squander most of his allotted time in this video, basically doing nothing except stare into his smartphone. A terrible waste of fame there. 🤠

[@geetamoonesar249]

hello and good afternoon everyone.. AK would you consider covering the diwali celebrations in Richmond Hill on 04 November 2021?

[@paulowarhol9375]

It looks older than many systems around the world, including London😳

[@AlexCab_49]

You should ride the San Francisco Muni metro next or Chicago L

[@oceana9294]

Do NYC subways have an elevator entrance/exit?

[@quanbrooklynkid7776]

Yea

[@adam-g7crq]

wello AK, couldn't help but notice that the seats you were sitting on had cabinets with DANGER 600 Volt's written on them, I mean them train's ain't new what happens when things go pear-shaped does the passenger sitting on top have a sizzling experience.

Sorry, this is more like Andy Warhol's movie "Sleep"...

[@joachimlotz5049]

Those Trains look so ugly and outdated. Why does the City of Boston not invest in newer Trains?

[@westport17782010]

There like Vintage 1970's Subway Cars

[@GreenBeans85]

They have, there are only a few new trains in service. The whole line should have all new trains by 2023

[@MrMlbfan6]

Loooks super outdated

[@GreenBeans85]

It is. Oldest train system in the country.
