HUB-WIDE—The MBTA has added countdown signs to 24 more T stations: "The MBTA began activating the signs in August, as the start of a program that will extend to all Red, Orange, and Blue Line stations. The Green Line will not have countdowns because its system for tracking trains is not as sophisticated, officials have said." [Boston.com]
