  • BSRA 2016-03-05 Entertainment Report Copy
    BSRA Entertainment Report for March 5, 2016 LONG FORM (for historical record) Entertainment Report for March 5, 2016 March 5, 2016. The T, Then and Now. Henry Marrec made silent color Super 8 mm movies of MBTA operations in the late 1960s and early 1970s, and in the Blizzards of 1978. Now on two DVDs produced in August 2010 with narration that he added himself, he showed this footage, along with footage taken in High Definition Video with sound in 2008 and 2010, and some bonus still photos of the original Red Line cars, and some bonus silent movie footage of New York City elevated operations. Part 1 of the first DVD started in 1967 with narrated Super 8 mm footage featuring MBTA Green PCCs running on the elevated structure from Lechmere through North Station, by Boston Garden. A fair amount of this footage and some of the following segments presented the view looking out the back window, which is something that is no longer possible (barring a rear cab ride or an errant open cab door) ever since the PCCs disappeared except on the Mattapan High-Speed Line. (For that matter, this is no longer possible even on buses ever since the last GM New Look -- or "Fishbowl" -- buses disappeared.) The next footage was Beacon Street outbound to Cleveland Circle. Footage included All-Electrics and Wartime PCCs at Cleveland Circle/ Reservoir in its old configuration. After a brief jaunt on Commonwealth Avenue, the next stop was Watertown Yard, showing several work equipment units that are now long gone, chiefly dump and crane cars, as well as PCCs turning around for revenue service, PCCs were still evident in Watertown Yard through August 1969, and this footage showed some of the last revenue service out of Watertown.

  • APPENDICES Everett-Boston
    Everett-Boston BRT APPENDICES APPENDIX A THE STATE OF TRANSIT IN EVERETT: EXISTING CONDITIONS AND FUTURE NEEDS 2 HISTORY OF TRANSIT IN EVERETT Boston’s transit system was originally designed with a series of surface– rapid transit transfer stations. Horsecars and then streetcars wound through narrow downtown streets, but the roads were quickly overcome by congestion, so the city built the first subway in the nation in 1897. However, this subway—now the Green Line—was relatively low-capacity, with a parade of short trolley cars running through narrow passages. As higher- capacity rapid transit lines were built, passengers would board surface vehicles (mostly trolleys) that fed into higher-capacity rapid transit lines at major transfer stations to continue trips downtown. Even as the network has changed, this general function has remained to this day. In the case of Everett, bus routes only serve the bordering towns of Medford, Malden, Revere, and Chelsea; nearly all other destinations require a transfer. For most trips, the transfer point is at Sullivan station, but buses also provide connections to the Orange Line at Wellington and Malden, as well as the Blue Line at Wood Island and Wonderland. This has not always been the case: Before the Orange Line was extended to Oak Grove in the 1970s, the line terminated in Everett, south of Revere Beach Parkway and the main population of the city. When the extension was opened, the routes serving Everett had their termini moved, with some extended from the old Everett station to Sullivan and others rerouted to Malden and Wellington stations.

    BSRA Entertainment Report for July 12, 2014 LONG FORM (for historical record) Entertainment Report for July 12, 2014 July 12, 2014. Boston in Transition. Loring lawrence showed us Boston-area transit service from 1970 to 1979, a period of change, when diverse types of equipment then in service were slowly making their exit. Throughout the show he demonstrated excellent recall of detail about various pieces of equipment. He started with a view on Summer Street of Boston's downtown in the 1970s, and proceeded quickly to Green Line serivce using PCCs painted in Traction Orange, first near North Station, then on Huntington Avenue, including ex-Dallas double-ended PCCS at Northeastern University, with the turnout track on the inbound side in the street, and then back to the Green Line elevated structure next to North Station. We got to see 2 of 3 PCCs that were painted in the Bicentennial livery: 3262 and 3253. Next stops were Arborway Yard (including an interior view of the shop there) on the E line, and then the D (Riverside) and C (Cleveland Circle) lines, followed by the Mattapan High Speed Line with PCCs in a red paint scheme (which made sense, given that from a passenger's point of view this line is a feeder to the Red Line, even though it is operationally separate; however, this paint scheme never caught on). Next stop was Boylston Street Station, on the track (inbound from what used to be the Pleasant Street Incline), where Loring captured on film was a miniature diesel locomotive made by Davenport Locomotive Works/Davenport- Besler Corporation.
