Effective  January 11, 2010, except in the case of emergency, customers will no longer be  allowed to enter or exit from the “operating end” of the control coach.  The engineer operates the train from  this location on inbound trips.   Upon arrival into Boston, there are mandatory safety duties for engineers  to perform which do not allow for foot traffic through the operating end of  these coaches.
Signs  will be placed on the coach door on that end of all control cars to remind  customers of this rule.
Please  enter and exit only through a door that is attended  by a crewmember.
We  appreciate that there will be some inconvenience to our passengers that are  accustomed to using the control car exit door, but for safety reasons we must enforce this new policy.  
Thank  you in advance for your cooperation.
