Last Saturday Alexander and I received the letter from Mr. Daniel Grabauskas, the General Manager of MBTA, in response to our two letters regarding the schedule changes on the Framingham/Worcester line and the elimination of the Yawkey station.
The letter claims that a passenger count showed only 3-4 people getting off the P528 train at Yawkey. This data is outrageous, as at least 5 of my coworkers used the Yawkey station daily before the schedule changed, not counting all the other people riding P528 train who are not employed by my company.
The letter also claims that elimination of the Yawkey stop caused P528 to run on time. Unfortunately, the schedule change and the elimination of the Yawkey stop happened on the same day. So Mr. Grabauskas cannot state conclusively whether it is the schedule change, the elimination of Yawkey, or both of those changes that positively affected the P528 on-time performance.
Our next steps are to reply to Mr. Daniel Grabauskas asking him to provide us with the details of the passenger counts done by the MBTA Railroad Operations group. We will also write to Mr. Bob Stoetzel, the MBTA Commuter Rail Director, forwarding him Mr. Grabauskas’s letter, and asking him to take action.

A letter to Bob Stoetzel won't do you much good, him having been fired recently over the noose incident.
All this stuff about a noose, why should that matter, you would probably fall down dead if you knew your bus or train drivers criminal history. I grew up in boston, and saw an old friend driving a bus in the city, i asked where he had been for the last couple of years. the answer might surprise some, he was in jail! Why? Vehicular homocide, driving while intoxicated, leaving the scene of a personal injury accident, and arson, All in the same DAY, now this guy is driving your family around on public transportation, i mean on the MBTA, I think us taxpayers should demand all of the MBTAs employees records be available anytime they are requested. it is only fair to ask the T to show us what they are hiring to get us home safe. As what i know now, i only hope i am on the bus when someone plows into it when our buddy above is driving, he alon with the people that hired him will all go to walpole, oops sorry, it is now Cedar Junction, in any words, JAIL!
