Father, A storm approaches from the south. The @MBTA has transferred us from the #Orangeline to oversee final repairs to the East Street bridge. The @MBTA_CR has rationed tickets to Foxboro. Panic has set in. Pray for the commonwealth.
Beloved, Please forgive my late letter. We have just been transferred from #Redline repair work at Harvard. The roof caved in like heavy rain. The @MBTA wagons are slow. Please keep our #Greenline and #Blueline brethren in your thoughts and pray for us all.

September 14th 1863 Mother, Our #Orangeline work continues until the early dawn hours. We have received word that our @MBTA #Greenline compatriots have suffered setbacks, but we persevere. We have been gifted an extra coffee & hardtack ration. I pray this was not in vain.
August 24th, 1863 Father, Our daring campaign commences, and with it, setbacks. As the @MBTA begins to repair the #orangeline, our crews have been outfitted with subpar tools. Derailments have already reared their ugly head. The 19th of September would appear a grand illusion.
August 19th, 1863 Rumors swirl and trust deteriorates. The halt of the @MBTA #orangeline looms ominously; #mbta leadership has fled the city on Ironclad ferries. I fear it is only a matter of time before the waterways will also soon be impassable.
August 15th, 1863 Mother, We have received a telegram from @MBTA command. As the #OrangeLine shutdown approaches; I write to implore you to avoid the roads, for our wagon trains will paralyze the city. I fear we have not seen a disaster of this magnitude since Fredericksburg.
August 13th 1863, As the sweltering heat wave breaks, the @MBTA shutdown looms. In Union Square, both #Orangeline and #Greenline riders ponder their scarce and confusing travel options. Despair has turned to confusion.

August 5th 1863, As the @MBTA shutdown continues to expand, #greenline wagon trains rendezvous with their #orangeline counterparts near Government Center.
Brother, Hope is forever elusive. I soddenly write from the riverbank. Our @MBTA #orangeline train has caught fire. Windows were shattered. We jumped in the river to escape. Tell mother and father I will not be home for supper.
Martha, The @MBTA's claims that all #RedLine, #Orangeline, #BlueLine, and #Greenline stations are being deeply cleaned is being met with widespread suspicion. The sick remain under quarantine, while the others must soldier on despite the filthy conditions. I fear we are doomed.
Telegram from the commuting front: @MBTA STOP #Redline and #Orangeline trains are out of service STOP #MBTA reinforcements are desperately needed STOP I fear the Friday commute will be a disaster without them STOP
Father, I haven't been able to write as we have been conscripted into working on the #GreenLine extension. However in my absence, the #MBTA remains the same. #RedLine delays are as frequent as ever; and the @MBTA winter preparedness program is non existent. We are doomed.

@MbtaWar I hope you are working on a new masterpiece about the orange line shutdown 🚂
The fact that we were able to keep my involvement a secret for over a year with no leaks is nothing less than a miracle. A real triumph for spoiler-haters everywhere! #LooseLipsSinkStarships #STFU
NEWS: I got a tip that someone in town for Robert Trump's White House funeral punched a server tonight at D.C.'s Fig & Olive restaurant. I called and an employee there confirmed it: "Somebody blindsided one of my servers. Clocked him right in the nose."
This might be the most controversial thing I ever tweeted but it’s time America faces the truth about a group of beloved historical figures, so here goes: Blanche, Dorothy, Rose $ Sophia—The Golden Girls—were actually members of an organized crime syndicate. A thread:

Ok on the #redline @MBTA @MBTAWar @crying_mbta @FixTheMBTAnow train very busy for this time #delays still abound
@marty_walsh @MassGovernor Every day until it gets done. Please #fixtheT and save the people who VOTED for you from daily inconvenience, anger, frustration and job loss risk. #lolmbta @MbtaWar Dearest Martha, the story continues
Sounds like the lying @MBTA's unannounced Orange Line delays are continuing, FYI to all
On my 3rd new(!) #orangeline train 🚊 this week. Is it really happening or is it another tease @MBTA? I cannot bear to get my hopes up to have them dashed the next day. I’m very emotionally vulnerable with all you’ve put me through @MBTA I fear a long cold winter @MBTAWar
If you relied on the @MBTA this year, your days were not merry or bright. From smoke-filled stations to "uncommon noises," @reneeygraham breaks down the broken down #MBTA. #mapoli #bospoli bostonglobe.com/2019/12/25/opi…
@MBTAWar @Karynregal @MBTA But he saved by nearby bars
@MBTAWar @MBTA Hoping @MassGovernor will visit the troops soon
@MbtaWar No word from the front. All communication is silent. Send supplies and rations.
@IrritatingRaven @MBTAWar @MBTA Son, I am relieved to hear from you after a long spell of silence. We are grateful for your continued valor. Please know in your heart that this is not a zero sum game. The cause of fair, equitable, and effective public transit is not at odds with walkable and bikeable streets.
🤣🤣😭
Dad, I write to you in hopes that you will somehow get us aid. There are obvious #MBTA #orangeline delays. I woke to clear skies this morning and knew in my gut this day would again prove to be an absolute disaster. @MBTA command continues to lie to itself. They are not ready.
