On our recent New England trip, Kris and I visited Norfolk, Massachusetts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Norfolk station, which is served by MBTA’s Franklin Line.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The double-tracking project that has been underway during our previous visits to Norfolk seems to have stalled. There’s a modern signal gantry in place with new signals, and while the right-of-way has been cleared and some ties laid down, heavy track work is still pending. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We waited for westward MBTA train 1709 that runs from South Station to Forge Park\/495 station. This was led by one of the distinctive HSP-46 diesels that are unique to MBTA.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Using my Nikon Z7-II, I exposed a rapid sequence of photos as the train entered the station at speed and then came to a complete stop on the platform. This was a good show!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
