Something new: half AC

This was a new one on me: coach #704 on the Franklin #715 train tonight (Thursday, 7/17/2008) didn't have air conditioning on one half. It was the half closer to the engine (and to Franklin, for that matter).

What's particularly unusual about that is that coach #704 is one of the new double-decker coaches. It was the first time I've seen any AC problem on one of those.

I wouldn't classify 704 as new anymore. It's about 18 years old!

Not sure if you saw this but there is a Flickr group now for photos of late MBTA/MBCR trains

Good point, dani b., but it's new to me. Compared to the senile old flats were were stuck with on the #715 train, 704 is a mere teenager! :D
