This is an image puzzle.  

First, identify the images:

In puzzle-left.jpg:

(L to R) and top to bottom, roughly:

(top row)
* RIVERSIDE Shakespeare.
* Map of LECHMERE point.
* The BRAIN, of "Pinky and the Brain," next to palm TREEs.
* Emerson College (a BOSTON COLLEGE).
* "Lionel Lincolne" is a book by James Fenimore Cooper; a prominent
  character is named LECHMERE.
* Northeastern (a BOSTON COLLEGE).

(second row)
* Portrait of William BOWDOIN.
* Boston Conservatory (another BOSTON COLLEGE).
* City of CLEVELAND, in a CIRCLE.
* (fork) The ASHMONT silverware pattern, from Reed and Barton.
* A Scottish HEATH.
* Gingko Bilboa, the BRAIN TREE.

(third row)
* City of FOREST HILLS, by Tampa, Florida.
* Symbols for FORESTS and HILLS, in the game Warmaster.
* The schooner BOWDOIN.
* Bentley College (another BOSTON COLLEGE).
* A picture of a classic RIVERSIDE.
* ASH (of Pokemon) in front of a MONT.
* Alice in WONDERLAND.

(bottom row)
* A volcano (an ASH MONT).
* An ALEWIFE.
* BOWDOIN Canyon, in Labrador, Canada.
* Picture of FOREST HILLS, New York (where the U.S. Open Tennis
tournament is held)
* MIT (yet another BOSTON COLLEGE).
* The old LECHMERE department store (note that you can actually read
"Lechmere" in the image, if you magnify the text enough).
* OAK GROVE brand beignet mix.

In puzzle-right.jpg:

(L to R)

(top row)
* LECHMERE House, in Cambridge, Massachusetts.
* ASHMONT, Alberta.
* BOWDOIN College seal.
* An ALEWIFE (fish).
* HARVARD (another BOSTON COLLEGE).

(second row)
* Some FOREST HILLS (in New Zealand, if your'e curious.)
* HEATH Ledger, in "A Knight's Tale."
* Portrait of Mrs. James E. BOWDOIN.
* RIVERSIDE, California.
* A guppy fish, named after R.J. LECHMERE Guppy, an English
naturalist.

(third row)
* Emmanuel College (still more BOSTON COLLEGE pictures).
* A HEATH plant.
* Seal for the city of OAK GROVE, Kentucky.
* Absolut WONDERLAND.
* Hope Davis, in "Next Stop WONDERLAND."
* Brandeis University (another BOSTON COLLEGE).

(fourth row)
* Portrait of James BOWDOIN.
* Vascular TREE in the BRAIN.
* Lesley College (still not the last BOSTON COLLEGE image).
* An actual picture of BOSTON COLLEGE itself.
* A Christmas TREE worm in a BRAIN coral.

(bottom row)
* UMass Boston (*still* not the final BOSTON COLLEGE image).
* An OAK GROVE (Mt. Pisgah Auditorium, Eugene, Oregon, if you're
interested).
* Suffolk College (the final BOSTON COLLEGE image).
* Grover CLEVELAND, in a circular scarf.

* portrait of William BOWDOIN.
* OAK GROVE brand beignet mix.
* board symbols for FORESTS and HILLS in the game Warmaster.
* volcano (= an ASH MONT).
* a RIVERSIDE.

So ... the images are all associated with the ends of Boston T lines
(clued in the title).  There are plural images for each stop -- the
number of images tells you to to take that letter out of the T station
name (ignoring spaces).  (NB: the "Arborway" branch of the Green Line
currently terminates at Heath station ... you can easily find this out
by looking at a T schedule.  Additionally: they are talking about
reopening the Arborway branch, in the far future.)

Several images are numbered.  This gives the ordering of the
letter-taking:

lechMere (5 images)
bowdoIn (6)
oaKgrove (3)
forEsthills (4)
ashMont (4)
riVerside (3)
cLevelandcircle (2)
aLewife (2)
braIntree (4)
bostoncolleGe (12)
heAth (3)
woNderland (3)

MIKEMVLLIGAN ... reading this "MIT-fashion" (V=U) gives you MIKE
MULLIGAN, the answer.
