Windblown snow adds to the general meteorological unpleasantness as a pair of ice-encrusted MBTA commuter trains behind an FP-10 and an F40 await their departures from Boston's old North Station. The station seen here (and the old Boston Garden that was part of it) has since been replaced by a larger facility with a new Garden sitting over the tracks.
The 70's and 80's were a transition period for the MBTA characterized by an eclectic mix of equipment including Budd RDC's, ex-New Haven stainless steel coaches, and a mix of motive power acquired from various railroads.
