I took these photos of the trains at Boston's South Station on Thursday, August 10, 2000. I arrived there at around 12:34 p.m. on the Amtrak 930 9:27 a.m. train from Stamford, Connecticut.
#1 The Stamford
station, from the northbound platform, looking south.
#2 A southbound Metro-North New
Haven commuter train pulled into the station before my train arrived.
#3 Here's my train! It has two
EMD AEM7's! The AEM7 is one of the fastest locomotives in North America!
Wow!
# A centerbeam flat car, with
lumber, somewhere on the way to Boston.
#2 & #3 The first locomotive
that I photographed, when I arrived at Boston's South Station, was this
switcher on Track 9.
#3 Amtrak Material Handling Cars (MHC) were on the track opposite my train. Note the yellow FRED end of train signal on the box car end.
