"With a lot of fanfare, MBTA’s mockup of the new Orange Line trains made its debut at City Hall Plaza today, where it will be open to the public through Wednesday.
The mockup, a two-thirds-size model of the way the brand new additions to the Orange Line will look when they start hitting the tracks beginning late this year, was produced by CRRC, the Chinese company that plans to manufacture the fleet of 152 Orange Line and 252 Red Line trains at a factory in Springfield."
