With the Fort Point Channel drawbridge in the background, a nearly new MBTA FP-10 and a string of leased GO Transit coaches depart South Station for the suburbs during the evening rush hour. The massive bridge was replaced with a low trestle during South Station's mid-1980s reconstruction since the channel was no longer navigable.
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.
