A video about the new and old blue line trains that I put together with some left over footage and photos I had on my computer. As far as I know there are only 1 or 2 sets of 0600's left. I was lucky to get a ride on one even when I was filming. Which of the two do you like best?

New Train has that R179 type of sound
@jdgator95 True. I ride the Blue Line on rare occasions during some of my Sunday commutes in Boston when it's clear and sunny.
0600 has that PATH Train sound
The interior of the old Blue Line cars look very much like the interior of the orange line trains to me.
The Old ones are definitely sound and look like the orange line
I love how the blue line trains (2008 700 series) sound similar to the Path train (2009 PA-5 cars). Or should I say the Path sounds similar because technically these have been around one year earlier. Anyway, nice video from Jersey City, NJ despite the fact that I'm late, 11 years late!
The old blue line will always have a place in my heart. I used to live near the airport station. My mother and I would always go to boston and have a time in there. I always love the blue liine
The old blue lines may have not aged the greatest but the old orange lines have aged A WHOLE LOT WORSE compared to the old blue lines. Watch a video of an Orange Line departing Downtown Crossing in 2015, the train looks like it's in horrible condition!
Another difference is that the 0600 series had DC motors and an aluminum body, whereas the 0700 series have AC motors and a stainless steel body.
you could go to Kennebuncport, Maine and ride a 0600 if you really wanted to...they also have 1951 St. Louis Car Co. and 1925 Pullman Standard cars that run!
Very good blue line close- up pictures
the old one sounds like the Orange line
Why doesn't the MBTA just repaint them if there getting rusty? They are 30 years old but there have been subway cars running alot longer than that
The rust must of gotten really bad because remember the blue line goes by the beach
I haven't been on an older type yet so I really can't decide.
The 0600s are way better. Ill get to see them again in a few hours at Seashore in Maine!
I like the new ones more
Old blue line was nicer. Do you think the MBTA will reinstate the old ones back into service. Still remember riding it
@blarization The 0600s are fully gone. You can't ride one now.
Not quite. We still have the Orange Line
2003rtm If you want to ride the Old Orange Line cars, you need to be quick. They just put in Six New trains in service and they will Replace the older trains.
I'll miss the 0600s.
Same here. I’ve Never got to Ride them!
New one best old one all gone
Yep... They did! Also, some stations can't accommodate a six car train, which is why the 0700s have "on demand" buttons that are activated at these stations.
I live in mattapan and I like these blue line trains a lot man the 700s exterior is better that the 600s but the 600 has a great interior and the smell of the old 600s are great nice bid man
I'd say my favorite trains are the type 7s on the Green Line or the Siemens on the Blue Line. I've got a huge distaste for the way they plastered ads all over the type 7's, though. It looks horrible.
Gonna be honest this was a 10 year old comment I have no idea
I like the Siemens trains
3:17 and also for what now?
I found out that green means the pantographs are down, orange means the snow/ice brakes are on, blue means wheel slip, and red mean the brakes are applied/doors opened
No, they are sold whole and then scrapped. I'm not sure which old trains you mean, but none have been taken away recently.
I hate the old train but I’m glad they are gone but the orange line needs to be gone as well I like the new orange line train as well
@tpirman1982 I agree, that's because they were both made to the (mostly) same design
@asvb232 nope. both the new and old trains run on overhead and third rail...they switch off at airport
Did the early 500 series blue line cars last so long because they were completely underground for about 25 years?
I think old is better
Manny Pagan i
Manny Pagan Nope, the newer ones are better. The older ones are basically the same thing as the Orange Line.
They are just as old but they are in much better condition becuase they do not run near the ocean or airport so the air that they run and are stored in is not as salty and polluted. They are expected to be retired around 2012
I like those transit system compare to Philly
Me too
I'm the same way, I love the old trains
What do you mean by pickup?
No, they're just sold for scrap
Boston strong
