Nice location. The signal bridges add to the photogenic qualities of the place. THANK YOU again for the detailed description attached here. Most youtubers assume everyone is familar with every location. That is very short-sighted.

In a few weeks I am driving from Ohio to spend several days railfanning at these locations. I REALLY appreciate your excellent written description and share your love of architecture. Stations form a backdrop for the trains and enhance the visual enjoyment. Any tips or advice when filming there? I plan on spending six or more hours per day at each location. Thanks again!

Six hours at each station might be a little excessive, but my only real advice would to always be alert and always pay attention... during the rush hours expresses can sneak up on you seemingly out of nowhere and freight trains usually don't trigger the platform warning systems. Also just be aware that during the week ridership is extremely high so I'd recommend shooting from the opposite platform from where the train is arriving if possible, otherwise you will likely have a herd of humanity obstructing your shots (and some people are kinder/nicer about being videotaped up close than others)

Nice video, dude! Have you seen the new Ashland station?

Not yet... I don't go west of Framingham very often because I currently live in Newton and there is much more service to the Newton stations from the inner trains than the outer trains, which frequently run at least semi-express.

This footage is indeed from the summer (August to be exact). Not sure what "weird consist" you are referring to... all four consists I saw here seemed perfectly normal with the exception of the MassDOT engine...

MBTA north side trains usually have intermediate bilevels as the first or second coach from the locomotive, not the second last coach@@massbytrainmpw

the control car bilevel is normal, but the intermediate one is in the unusual spot in the set

doesn't mean anything about the tier 3, back in the early 2000s they used to run tier 0 gp40s
@massbytrainmpw9 ай бұрын
They still run the GP40s on the north side, and occasionally the Fairmount Line. The issue is all of the tunnels along the Southwest Corridor and the Old Colony Main Line. For the longest time Back Bay station had some of the worst air quality in the entire city of Boston, and Quincy Center station was pretty bad too. Both stations now have upgraded ventilation systems, but they're still trying to keep the worst of the polluters out of the underground portions.

Imagine these CRRC 1400 series cars running on the old elevated routes (Washington Street, Atlantic Avenue, and Main Street)? that would have been an interesting sight to remember. . .
