They already have rail Access in Quincy at the shipyard, where they already have a large pile of salt that they use for south shore communities. I assume they are going to close this facility and move everything to Boston. the cost to split the ships for unloading is expensive, they don't have unloa...

one small problem with anything coming out of Fitchburg to Framingham, the line from Leominster center (end of active track) to Fitchburg is gone and is being turned into a bike rail trail including replacing the bridge over Rte 2with a smaller bridge

what time does B724 depart Framingham? trying to catch them up in Clinton and Beyond. I assume its about 2-3 hours to get to Clinton.

Thanks in advance

I read the article as well as watched the news regarding the service cuts, the article refers to only the 800 MBTA employees that will be laid off. However it will be even more than that. when you include the Keolis employees and the people who work for the Commuter boats (of which I am employed) yo...

I still wonder if battery-electric trains might be the answer. A battery big enough for an 8-coach Commuter Rail train would be very, very expensive and much heavier than the equivalent energy in diesel. So no. actually, they make ferries that are almost as heavy as a locomotive and they are able to...

as of late, the last month or two at least, THe CSX yard crew (Y120) has been holding down two different runs off the CSX mainline trains. Q426/427 has been combined as of late to include P&W cars on the end of the train, Normally the head end. Normally Q426 will tie the train down by CP 48. Y 1...
