A look back of the Orange Line at the Washington Street El in Boston, Mass, for over 8 & a half decades. And this is the 150th video of my career.

  • 'Tis a rotten shame it was torn down...could have kept it as an alternate route, or partitioned it into two routes, perhaps an Orange and a Tangerine! *laughs* Some people are just so backwards in thinking. Anyways, nice pictures. Also a question....anyone have any pictures, or better videos, of those old-school escalators that Boston once had? (the Orange El had them at a couple of stations.....I'm talking about the wooden slanted ones, that had "cleats" instead of "steps")

  • Perhaps it was done to 'keep' certain people from being to mobile. Or stagnate the economy in certain neighborhoods.

  • There was no reason to tear down the El. It had been all rebuilt before it was torn down. Now this whole area has no rapid transit at all.
