Well, Boston South Station had low platforms for how long . . . ? One of the biggest mistakes the MBTA made was building high platforms; they should have used gallery cars or low-door Comets (not high-door!) for their commuter rail. If all the high platforms in the Northeast had been ripped out instead of built up, we could have had low-floor commuter cars, and Talgos for high-speed service between Boston and Washington DC . . . |
