It depends on the time of day, and time of the week you travel pass the yard. Yes, freight traffic is based out of those 3 major yards, but as of last check, Readville is still used. There is the RTE 128 industrial Park and Stoughton Branch that are served out of Readville. Also, there is a freight that travels Readville-Walpole-Framingham. But then again, this was back in January that we as a group last tralked about Readville. Also there is the cold storage behind the yard itself, the freight you'll see are loaded centerbeam cars, box cars filled with various goods, and cold storage cars. 2 of the jobs start early, 8am on duty?? so if you travel by the yard round noon, good bet is the yard will be empty
