Show Notes
After a ten-month hold, customs officials clear shipment of train car shells for Bostons Red Line, allowing CRRC to bring back over 140 furloughed workers. Local leaders, including Rep. Neal and Gov. Healey, facilitated negotiations. The delay was due to a federal law targeting goods linked to forced labor in Xinjiang. CRRCs review of documents proved their parts were unconnected to such labor. This development comes under a major contract worth between $1.1 billion and $1.4 billion for new Orange and Red Line cars, with deliveries potentially accelerating.
