Remarks & Notes

As the morning rush hour winds down at Boston's South Station, a long Penn Central commuter train that has turned on the loop backs into a platform while a GP9 stands by. Ex-PRR E8s and ex-NH GP9s were the standard Boston commuter power for PC at the time along with a fleet of RDCs.
