An Up-Close Look At the MBTA's Newest Project | Boston Railroading Explained: The Fiber Train

Starting this past summer, the MBTA began running their new cable train, which will install an underground system of fiber optic PTC cables on the system for the next few years. Watch to learn about how this train works, and why it can be so hard to catch! Enjoy! MANY thanks to my good friend Isaiah at the channel Mainline South for capturing much of the CRISP telephoto footage in this video!
