Remarks & Notes

An MBTA commuter train behind an F40PH en route from Boston to Fitchburg, MA, accelerates west through East Somerville on a summer afternoon. Today the B&M freight bridge in the background is gone and a Green Line light rail line extension is being constructed parallell to the railroad.
