If they made the rails continuously welded, and put in concrete ties, then (hypothetically) trains could go up to speeds of 80-100 mph in some spots. on cape cod

@chessie6575 It wasn't Bay Colony's job to maintain a long industrial spur for free.
-
four years ago the tracks by ottis air base had to close because of poor maintenance. but it re-opened when mass coastal came in the picture

Women engineers?!?!?!? What will they think of next????

what station is that

@CapeTrains I would love to be escorted! We've been lookin for some people to interview. Thanks for the info!

@metalbynumber Dunno - call 'em. WIth all the frivolous lawsuits these days (e.g. suing McDonalds because you dumped hot coffee in your lap), the railroads take trespassing very seriously. Any number of people have had accidents walking on railroad rights-of-way, and have sued the railroads...and often won, even though they had no business being there. MBTA will probably say no flat out (but you never know), while Mass Coastal *might* grant you permission if escorted.

Is there anyway to get permission to walk them? I'm planning to do a documentary.

@jdgator95 Yes, we miss the Pumpkins. They're in Colorado now.

do they still have passenger trains running up to cape cod?

@darthfurious80 There's been talk - and recently some activity - towards providing commuter service from Middleborough to Sandwich, but it hasn't materialized yet. The "Cape Codder" hasn't run since '96...and is sorely missed.

Why does the MBTA loco have grills over the windshield ?

@ccolimon Because the tracks run through some pretty tough neighborhoods in the Boston area and kids occasionally throw rocks at the trains.

I prefer the F10 engines, they look amazing, the F series at that. And what wrong with the tracks? They look near abandoned, is the brush crew not a big deal for this line?

MTBA's not on home rails here - the train was on its way to a railfan event on the Cape. At the time this was taken, the Bay Colony railroad was in charge of track maintenance. As you can see, they did the minimum.
