T is almost always late, even the commuter trains. If you use the trip planner, you should always expect a half hour delay, so don't choose the option that gets you to work (or wherever) 2 minutes before you have to be there or you'll be late. It's been that way since at least 2012, when I thought I'd catch the commuter rail so that I could avoid the long-term parking fee at Logan. Result: missed my flight, but Delta just booked me on the next flight to Amsterdam, so not a significant problem. ...but if you NEED to be there on time and you NEED to take public transportation, don't choose the option that gets you there only a few minutes before you NEED to be there. It's just a fact. Same deal with the free shuttles that take you around Logan - expect at least 1/2 hour delay. Don't choose a bus that scheduled to get you there only a few minutes before you need to get to your destination or else you'll be late. Trip Planner is significantly flawed, too. No real time updates - it told me there was a 171 bus to Logan at 3 am, but I waited for 3 hours with homeless people, pigeons, and rats at Andrew Station for the bus to Logan.
I take two MBTA trains and a bus, 0 problems today, what are you on about? And why talk to someone about cars in a piece about the MBTA? This looks more like an excuse to shoot film at the BU campus for some reason.
New England cold is just different. How? I have seen people in t-shirts and shorts with no coat on or just a hoodie and sneakers. I see people with coats with hoods and they don't even put the hood on. People dress like it's June. There are plenty of buses to cover train issues. People who refuse to take the mbta are more sincere than people who do take it and won't pay.

I remember in the 1980s the T used to be much more resilient to winter weather. It has been going downhill since well before the pandemic.

A leaf blown onto the track disrupts MBTA commutes. They're running out of excuses
