MBCR pulled a good Halloween prank on the Franklin Line tonight

Dave reports that two cars in a row on his Franklin Line train tonight had no handles on the outsides of their doors:

... Some people ran for the first car that actually had handles, some tried to make contact with someone inside the train so they could open them from the inside and some just stood and cussed. I like to imagine Mr. O'Leary watching scenes like this kind of thing on a video feed in his office at the MBCR and just laughing and laughing.

Jim O'Leary isn't the GM at MBCR anymore. You should imagine Richard Davey instead, which may not have the same effect.

The cars with no handle are the one with automatic doors. The trick I see all the time is to get someone to pull the "emergency release" handle inside, push the door open, then push the handle back up.

Or just get conductors that pay attention to what doors are open...
