@MooreAbdow Hi there! Terribly sorry for the inaccurate information you’re seeing there.

There’s no way that train will be there in 10 minutes.

@hailsalex91 @MBTA Hi Alex, thanks for the suggestion! We like it.

As to your complaint, please remember we expect all commuters to remember their car number, as well as the name, date of birth, shoe size, and mother’s maiden name of the train operator.

We will not look into it.

@BrandMc6 @MBTA_CR Hi Brandi, no, you are not going to get into the city today. But we will be handing out free snacks around 11am and turning on some spotty wifi during the lunch hour. Movie to follow around 2pm.

Tonight’s special treat for our valued #MBTA #CommuterRail riders: 15 minute delays and short sets!

Enjoy.

@Dala604 Hi there! You caught us. We figured, fewer riders, fewer complaints. Didn’t work. #MBTA #backbay

[The Real MBTA @realBostonMBTA]

Thanks for noticing our efforts! Caffeinated #MBTA riders are far more agile and more likely to survive derailments and train fires.

#MBTA #OrangeLine rider poll! What are you most looking forward to when service resumes?

[The Real MBTA @realBostonMBTA]

The survey clearly didn’t interview our #MBTA transit riders, which puts everyone in a great mood, all the time!

Boston ranks among the rudest cities in America, according to a new survey. https://t.co/cSd6AiSgB9

Made one of these #mbta orange line shutdown signs. Lmk if you want the template 😂

@urbaneric21 Misuse of official #MBTA intellectual property is strongly frowned upon and will result in serious finger wagging. (Plus, it hurts our feelings.)

[The Real MBTA @realBostonMBTA]

Was your commuting experience with the #MBTA pleasant on this lovely Friday? Let us know!

[The Real MBTA @realBostonMBTA]

@johnptak Hi, thanks your feedback! We like it when the community comes together, so we intentionally run fewer trains so people can be closer & happier. Long wait times give you the opportunity to make friends on the platform.

We are fully staffed. No need for more jobs but thanks! #MBTA

[The Real MBTA @realBostonMBTA]

On hot days like today on your favorite #MBTA trains, which kind of air conditioning do you most prefer?

[The Real MBTA @realBostonMBTA]

@JosVaugh Hi there. We cleaned them once in 1986 but got complaints about wasted tax dollars 🤷🏻‍♂️ #MBTA

[The Real MBTA @realBostonMBTA]

Knew we forgot something…

This is an #MBTA fan at Kenmore. It is not plugged in. No point, it has no blades. Never change MBTA.

[The Real MBTA @realBostonMBTA]

Please be advised, as a bonus for today, #MBTA commuters may get the chance to swim when getting off the train.

[The Real MBTA @realBostonMBTA]

@gumpygrumpy @BrePWBZ @MBTA @MassDOT Good morning - we expect a number of #MBTA trains to become flooded or derailed. We advise caution to all of our customers on days like today. Keep your wits about you and listen for frantic train horns.

[The Real MBTA @realBostonMBTA]

@kfmorrison70 Hi there, the water represents the tears of #MBTA commuters. We keep the station this way to remind us how important our job is. Have a great day!
