BOSTON -- A six-car train with passengers on board that left a suburban Boston transit station without a driver Thursday and went through four stations without stopping was tampered with, Massachusetts Gov. Charlie Baker said.

None of the approximately 50 passengers was hurt, but the train's operator suffered a minor injury when he was brushed by the train, apparently as it began to move at the Braintree station, a spokesman for the Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority said. CBS station WBZ-TV reports that the injured MBTA worker was transported to South Shore Hospital.

Evil Irish and Italians should be monitored 24/7.

There should be no monitoring of Cair and their loving members.

We Swiss should be monitored too. I’m feeling left out. But right, no monitoring of peace loving muslims. And they should investigate Trump — he might be setting up some hapless muslim, evil racist that he is. /sarc

Just don’t make fun of our laderhosen.

Although, I’m not much for living up in the mountains to be perfectly honest. I’m of Swiss decent and wish I lived on the beach. Go figure.

You might have some intelligent DNA in you, which says living near a nice warm beach beats miserable cold weather.

One has to ask why only the Red Line is cursed and not the Blue and Orange lines as they are all run by the same authority. Decades ago, the Red Line trains caught fire twice by South Station.

Meanwhile our socialist government is increasing road congestion under the guise of Smart Growth. Smart Growth is where they reduce lanes, add sidewalk jetties, speed bumps, make straight roads crooked, and add tight round-a-bouts. They sell it as traffic calming but the real intent is to make automobile driving as miserable as possible to encourage commuters to ride public transportation.

Won't work. It is like mugging a liberal. Will make more conservatives listening to talk radio as they sit in traffic jambs.

“You might have some intelligent DNA in you, which says living near a nice warm beach beats miserable cold weather.”

Might be the ‘injun blood in me.

Actually, I’m Heinz 57 — Irish, Scotch, Jewish [indirect descendent of Lazarus], French Hugonaut, even Hunnish blood [Huns who converted from the Miracle that turned back Attila and moved to France]. And condiserable indian blood [aka ‘native american’].

So if anyone wants to know what makes me so crazy ....
