Interesting little hopper.
In a few moments it will head towards Everett
He is diverging on to the branch which used to lead to the autorack unloading facility. The facility closed five or so years ago and it has been many, many years since I've seen a train do this. Check out my buddy's video of this moment: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iy4cBBm79mA&list=UUinUgx_FcCSPwAqxzugYYtg

Shiny new Rotem on the inbound.
Making up their train in North Yard
Once they do they will head to the Grafton and Upton
An outbound on the left, inbound in the middle and a CSX local on the right.
An outbound can also be seen on the far left
Off to be interchanged with the Grafton and Upton.
This train has 8 coaches, all double-deckers, the only one of its kind of the MBTA system.
Only the first two units were on line and they were moving around quite a lot of cars. The EMD 645's sounded great doing so!
