The next MBTA train to retirement is now arriving.
Frank Oglesby, Jr., the T employee whose crisp baritone commuters will recognize from the automated clips that herald the comings and goings of Boston’s public transit system, is moving on.
For more than 20 years, the man who the agency calls the “Voice of the T” has recorded announcements on everything from reminders not to smoke, please, to the imminence of the next Blue Line train to Bowdoin. He’s retiring at the end of July.
