During its year-long lease to the MBTA for Boston commuter service, Delaware & Hudson PA 16 leans into a curve at Weston, MA, with a Boston-Framingham evening rush hour train. The former Boston & Albany line was the primary assignment for these locomotives during their time in Boston.
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.
