Yeah, I'd say the MBTA operating normally is pretty rare indeed.
It’s been relatively decent recently
If it was about MBTA, the Blue Line ( Airport to Wonderland) should have been talked about.😾
I’m planning a separate video for that, stay tuned for that!
6:35 i see you, Aj rod
My guess is that it's the weight.
Nice video! I was wondering how the contactless payment works and this video helped!
Glad I could help!
4:47 there is another one 1129 is now a heritage unit
I heard! I can't wait for it to start revenue service!
Rode the polar express. Wasn’t bad wish they had longer rides. Conway is a solid tho for length. Wish they would redo the mountain division. Being able to travel straight too Boston from Conway or sound that area would be amazing
413 is not at an unknown Railroad Museum It's at The Danbury railroad Musem and is non-operational but is taken care of
Good to know, thanks!
Springfield to Boston by train. Cmon mass what are we doing
Bring it back!!
My favorite is the original F40 but they’re all amazing in their own ways
They will always be the best.
Nice thumbnail God bless
Thanks!
LOL I LOVED this video. Not only is it helpful, giving me confidence to do this alone, it was also very funny with your hiccup at the end. Thanks again!
Of course! Glad I could help!

The train in Wilton NH goes right by my house and the meth dealer next door. The Wilton NH police have been protecting the town meth dealer for years and retaliate against neighbors who complain about drug traffic. The Wilton NH prosecutor is a police officer under the corrupt Sargent and they both protect the town meth dealer.
Interesting!
❤ love the video you did an outstanding job double thumbs up😊
Thanks!
If I were to build a 2 foot narrow gauge railroad, I would Build a dinner car a baggage car a dining car a lunch car an economy class car a cafe car a snack car and a refreshment car for the Narrow gauge railroads between 500 MM and 1000 MM.
I bet they used to have those, just lost in all the closures and abandonments
I would define standard gauge railroads between 1067 and 1435.
I would change the definition of narrow gauge railroads between 600 MM and 1000 MM.
That is a 2-4-4 Mason Bogie, Right?
Nope, it’s a 2-4-4T Foreny type
@@conorontherails oh... heh my bad
@@Elliottblancher all good, they all look pretty similar!
@@conorontherails I forgot Forney even existed

Very good video, and I like the history recap. However, their is a bit of an error when it comes to the locomotives' current ownership. The Editville railroad no longer owns any of the original Maine 2 foot steam locomotives. Around the 80s or 90s, the original Editville railroad shut down, and most of the locomotives,#3,4,7, and 8, and cars were acquired by Maine narrow gauge railroad, and one locomotive, #10, and some cars went to the Wasasset waterdeville and farmington, narrow gauge railway. The current Editville railroad was rebuilt and uses locomotives and cars that I believe were custom-built for the new railroad. However, the Maine narrow gauge railroad does send its locomotives down to Editville once in a while for a visit. As well as for occasional visits to the Wasasset Waterville and Farmington railway.
Ah i see. I found that confusing when I was reading the history, thanks for the clarification!
We grew up going to Edaville. We’re about 25 minutes away. It’s been a great “day” for 4 generations of our family. After they closed and the trains went home I’m just thankful it came back to be!
Do a video on the ww&f railway in main
I’ve always wanted to go up there! It’ll definitely be a future video!
Poor Boston hardly has any freight traffic left, right?
Unfortunately. If it does it’s all in the dead of night.
Just saying, Saco is pronounced like Sock-O and not Sack-O. Just though it'd tell you
good to know, thanks!
Who didn’t like Mr Sock-o?!
Since when is montreal in mass? Big question is bodo route back? Via Reading? I've rarely seen bodo. I have seen dobo come in via Reading.
I’m not sure. I think they are gonna keep it on the New Hampshire main line for a bit while they do some track work and infrastructure upgrades on the haverhill
L080 had MEC power. I know, I know, they were CSX, but now that they are back under CSX they haven't been re-stenciled to CSX ownership and are officially still MEC. Nice video. Someday I might get time to wander around again.
Nice! I know they haven’t been re-stenciled but they are under CSX Ownership again.
Nice video! I'll be up in Portland in about a week and a half and I'll have to check this out!
Definitely take a look at it! It runs Wednesday through Saturday
@@conorontherailsyou should also check out the WW&F which runs on 3.4 miles of rebuilt trackage on part of the original WW&F railroad grade.
Stay Tuned Man 100%. Big Thanks for those Memories I felt it was better times bk then!?

What u do hang out at North station....no Quincy?
I haven't gone there too much!
Nice shots !
Thanks!
Great video! A Lot of time was put into this!
Thanks!
Great job love trains !!! I have been exploring Quebec rail
Nice!
Still wild to me to see freight working local industry within the Boston city limits. And i used to live near the CSX Beacon yard in the late 90s. Great stuff.
Wish I could still see daylight running beacon park action!
I have never seen a NS engine on a CSX train in the Springfield area.
It’s a little farther away from Springfield than you might think
@@conorontherails I don't think so. Miller's Falls is nowhere near Springfield.
This video title is misleading...
How so?
@@conorontherails cause there is footage from Montreal?
This comment is misleading
@@trainlover123trainsrock fair point, the majority is from Massachusetts but that doesn’t look too good on a title
@@conorontherails Yep
Dope video bro - are there any Mass related Facebook groups to join? I definitely need to get up there asap
There are a TON! What specifically are you looking for?
@@conorontherails Berkshire & Eastern
You beat that first train from Haverhill to Boston? You're Superman!
🦸♂️
DOBO don go that fast
Those freight cars are spotless no graffiti
I’m surprised by that!
Excellent video my friends awesome like 👍🏻 Greeting 😊
Thanks!
How are L080 and B&E rare?
They aren’t exactly rare, they are daily local freights, but at the time of filming their OD time (On Duty) at Portland meant they would be running in darkness once they got to Haverhill and Lawerence. The OD time has since changed so they run in daylight more often now, but at the time they normally wouldn’t.
@@conorontherails they changed it to later for 2 weeks L080 was OD at 2, it runs “twice” a day either way
@@BenGagne I hope they keep it that way.
@@conorontherails now they don’t have a set OD time they just get called when they’re needed, caught them at 21:00 in OOB last night
I really wanted them to keep that early OD, made seeing them so much easier
FRIENDLY CROSSINGS. 😊
5:08 Do they have to do that right there on the left side of the sreen (the couple)
I know it’s annoying, but some people just don’t notice it.
@@conorontherails Oh nice video btw im going to bostan in a one week and im going to be railfanning on the haverhill line (Andover station) Any thing cool passing their thats not MBTA or Amtrak. thank you
The only thing you would be able to get that's not MBTA or Amtrak is L080, the CSX local that was in this video!
@@conorontherails Is that in the daylight or night fall
I grew up on the street located just above Bradford depot and it was there that I got hooked on railroads. My father used to take me over to the fence to watch the trains and we used to ride the ubiquitous Budd Liners (RDCs) to Boston often to visit my grandparents who lived in Cambridge. Where the depot and parking lot is today used to be a good-sized freight yard and the old depot had a dispatcher's office located at the end facing west towards Lawrence. There was quite a bit of freight traffic in the early to mid-1960s and there was a switcher stationed there as well. Much later, I used to railfan from that same location you did in Lawrence. I was approached by the then friendly B&M crew and was offered a job. I almost took it but for some reason or another I didn't. A short time later Guilford took over and everything fell apart. Perhaps it was my inner senses telling me not to do it. It's hard to remember why so many years ago now.
That’s an amazing story! I got hooked on railroading the same way, my dad took me up to West Medford station and we sat for hours watching the trains fly by.
Wonderful catches! Those CSX Dash 8 Standard Cabs are a sight to behold in 2024! Funny to see a C40-8 highballing it in 2024, awesome video and nice P5 on the first train! 0:44 I see those locomotives, the Dash 8 duo and GP40-2LW still in Guilford/B&M colors!
I hope they stay in those colors for a little bit longer!
Keep up the content 👍👍
Thanks!
I love those commuter rail locomotives.
Same here!
By the way, the Horizons are actually to replace the amfleets. Not just for the celtic games.
I know, I didn’t mention the fact they are replacing them.
Hi lover of New England. And Celtic is Irish n Scottish Traditions etc. Hi from Ireland
