MBTA 1138 Pushes Into North Station and Later Pulls Out
Author: MartyBernard

1. and 2. It's 5:13 the afternoon of September 5, 2012 and MBTA GP40MC 1138 is pushing its train on the Boston North Station leads, over the River and to a platform in North Station.  Amtrak 90214 with a Downeaster is following at a distance.

3., 4., 5., and 6. It's 5:46 and 1138 is pulling out with a load of home bound commuters.  So is MBTA 1001.  And coincidentally, so is the Amtrak Downeaster.  But the Downeaster has to wait for the commuters.

Enjoy,
Marty Bernard

Excellent series Marty!  That 1138 is a boss unit!

I have to agree that these are great-looking units. Here's the next-in-line 1139 backing in a train in 2014:
