Of course, it takes an hour for it to be that fast.
-
@campolicejeff Actually, it's the opposite. Outbound from Boston the F40's and GP40MC's are pulling, they push inbound.

@alx2925 Remember when an Amtrak train smashed into the rear of a stopped MBTA train at Back Bay Station ? The Amtrak train was being run by and engineer trainee.

@tpirman1982 The MBTA runs all commuter rail with loco forward inbound to Boston and loco last outbound. There's no place to turn the trains at North or South station. This is common practice throughout the US and in Europe.

@tpirman1982 Yes, it's a cab car, it's essentially a remote control for the locomotive.
-
@timoz26 Obviously you don't take the MBCR much ;-)
-
Wait? As fast any Acela or AEM can go? That's not right. The MBTA (most likely) was going at 79 MPH. Acela's and AEM's can go up to 150 MPH in some places, but good vid!

Probably a Providence/Stoughton line train

I can't believe I saw a diesel pushing that train.

Uh, I think it's being operated from the back passenger car. I don't really know how it runs backwards, but I'm guessing that it's running from the back passenger car going inbound to South Station.

This is probally the 1:30 outbound from Providence, it stops at Route 128, the goes STRAIGHT to Back Bay. Hey just like an Amtrak!!
alx2925 4 years ago
Uh, no. This train was going inbound.
It was sometime around 2:36pm when the train by.

Well, each train has its own schedule.
Obviously, this one does not have Hyde Park on its schedule, so this one doesn't stop there. Just like on the trains I go to and from Hyde Park, the other station in Hyde Park my train bypasses is Readville.
