3:10, TYPE 9 TEST TRAIN!! 😮 3923 is trailing 3900. It and 3922 were delivered in February of 2021. All Type 9s were accepted for service before the end of the year, by mid-August. Should say on the destination sign in the front and on the sides: “TEST TRAIN, NO PASSENGERS”. Wow, both the oldest and newest Type 9s coupled together in one train set, cool. 👍👍
3920 and 3921 were delivered to Riverside on December 30, 2020, followed by 3922 and 3923 on February 4, 2021. May 29, 2021: 3920 and 3921 have been conditionally accepted. July 3, 2021: 3922 has now been accepted. August 14, 2021: 3923 has now been accepted, meaning that this marks the end of the type 9 acceptance process and that all cars are now in service. February 4, 2021: 3922 and 3923 have been delivered to Riverside, so this marks the completion of the type 9 delivery. To date, cars 3900-3917 are in service, so 3918-3923 are in the acceptance testing.
@@zazaranger5 yup. Septa has been using those old cars for so long. But I love them out of nostalgia anyways. But yeah the light rail here in my town is a joke, but at least we got light rail! Makes the commute between media and Sharon hill easier
Yours in Miami are actually modern L trains meaning they are full width rapid transit trains that run above the streets. Like the L trains in Chicago which were built for lines that began on the 1890s.

At one time, an MBTA employee had to sit in the driver's seat in the second car to make sure everyone boarding in that car paid the fare. Do they still do this?
I miss riding on MBTA, a little bit of everything.
Nice! I like the new trains. 👍👍 They look awesome, clean, shiny and spacious looking.

Wow! Those new cars have one heck of a paint job! Sure is nice to see infrastructure getting upgrades!
They say the type 9s will be transferred to the Mattapan Trolley in the future when the line is rebuilt to handle the newer LRVS.
Remember that some of the type 8s are 2006-2008 builds because those had to replace the 3400 series Boeing LRVs.

17:44, Newly in-service Type 9 LRV 3922 leaving North Station, July 6, 2021.
When they accelerate they sound like a R142A/R188 by Kawasaki
WOW THEIR TRAINS LOOK BETTER THAN OURS HERE IN MIAMI FLORIDA.
Better than here in Philadelphia too, ours are way too old and outdated
I rode it 12 times

I love MBTA Green Line
Kinda like the Media line, without the speed.
At one time, an MBTA employee had to sit in the driver's seat in the second car to make sure everyone boarding in that car paid the fare. Do they still do this?
