Reply to comment by Conan776 in I took a 2 1/2 hour flight from Chicago to Boston. It took me 2 1/2 hours to get from Logan to Watertown Square by jenkneefur28

I haven't noticed any difference. Same intervals, same route. The trolleys weren't that fast to begin with.

Unfortunately the data agrees with you. I pulled the reliability data from the MBTA Performance Dashboard for yesterday and the Thursday prior to pulling the trolleybuses from service.

Route	Jan 26 2023 (30 day)	Mar 10 2022 (30 day)
71	81%	80%
73	82%	80%

Seems like things haven't changed much. Other than more pollution, of course.

Looks like you got the wrong year

I just double checked and I appear to have typo'd the year in my comment. I've adjusted the comment to properly reflect that the date of this past Thursday was January 26, 2023 and not January 26, 2022. The rest of the comment remains accurate though.
