This may seem to be a minor point, but the line to Troy (dating back to the Troy and Greenfield) was considered to be a main route/track, while the freight line (Boston, Hoosac Tunnel and Western) to Rotterdam Junction has always been considered to be a main line as well. The downgrading of the Troy line occurred after the end of B&M passenger service in 1958.

That dome appears to be an ex-Wabash Blue Bird car with new outside swinghanger trucks added.
