This story about the T hits particularly close to home for me, as I regularly depend on the Worcester/Framingham line out of Boston to get into the city, and to Logan Airport.  As some commenters on that post argue, this may just be how politics is played in Boston – but that misses what in my mind is a damning indictment of the way stimulus money is being spent (thanks to Cohn in the above article for this link).  No reasonably well managed mass transit system in the country should have to be worried about money with all the dollars currently floating around.
