They don't have any signals there?

Great video, and I must say I like both the old and new, and hope they remain in service for a very long time !

I hope the version coming to train sim world has that same suspension movement.

How do these engines and cars get cleaned? Does the MBTA have a drive-though wash for them or is it done by hand? I think all the engines and cars would look terrific if kept clean.

Be sure to do a video about test trains on the South Coast Rail Project between Middleborough, Fall River, and New Bedford.

I'm honestly really going to miss the old equipment on MBTA, especially on the south side like the MBB cab cars, F40ph 2cs, and yes the older Gp40mcs because they were a huge part of my childhood

The engineers had to be on high foamer watch with that consist! Great video, and great editing.

WTF?

Last I checked KFC and Taco Bell were owned by the same company so they have had those combined locations, and also some with Pizza Hut

Nice video. I really hope 1135 gets an NHRR paint scheme, that unit has been my favorite since childhood.

8:18 that horn is amazing. Reminds me of the Go transit bilevel cab cars back when they had K5LAs

good to know I'm not going crazy because I stumbled upon the Geometry Train as I was working my last two weeks at my old job in Boston, I was walking by Track 4 at Readville on my way to the Providence Line on Track 3 and saw this weird consist of MBTA, Amtrak and CTrail cars going through the station and thought it was an oddball set of cars. Now I understand why it exists.

it's not a Boston By Rails video without a special guest appearance from the Readville Switcher, and it's looking great in that fresh MBTA purple!

So frantic, wth

Quality is perfection. By the way did you see the Avelia test train today?

1:03 did you take that video yesterday? i saw a dude in ruggles station filming my commuter train on an iphone :D

awesome also me & friends we rebuilding 04 chevy impala

About 1136, It still has an mechanical bell. I'm sure it along with 1127 and 1134 needs an e bell soon along with 1118, 1119, 1128, 1130, 1131, 1132.

The E branch history

I will miss the old jeeps but I ride the Lowell line for college so I’ll probably still see them. I used to see the 2C and GP40s on the south side in the 2010s as a kid so I can’t wait for the rebuilds and hopefully they come back south!

keep the geeps old bells

Curious on the history of the bridge. Did it ever have a second line on it? Or just built for future possibilities? Nice video. Cheers - Bob

I grew up in that area always heard about the train guy in that building but thought it was just someone with a small layout. Never knew how big it was. Now I’m gonna have to go see it. Thanks

I've been a Railfan in New England since the late 1960s starting with my older Brother and Father in the Boston area and seen all the greal RRs NH, NYC, (PC), B&M, and north, south & west to the DH, MEC, BAR, CV, CP, GM, CN, PW into Guilford to Pan Am. I Never got excited about the MBTA at all, except when they got rebuilt F3/F7s (FP10) from GM&O I took photos of them in 1978', but I never like the MBTAs Purple paint !! 👎 I do feel bad for today's Railfans though, my time in the hobby was the very best with all the Fallen Flags still running with 1st, 2nd Gen power 3-5 builders and great paint schemes with No freak'n crap Graffiti right up in the 1980s !! 👍 I've lived in Exeter, NH 50ft from the mainline on Main St the last 30 years moving here because of the location and seeing Everything go by !

For a young man you do a great job explaining what’s going on You a good narrator for the videos. Thanks for making them

Mechanical bells > e-bells.

Amtrak 100 is in the clip or MBTA 1120 passes MBTA 1134 on the left side

Can you find the word MBTA in this?mjfesgjyemrfugjref,jugrefugrgejjug,dvdukzdgkubdgxbujdgxmbtajfehfhjhjhibjjbjbhfddxfhkbv

Did you notice Amtrak 100 the dark the navy blue unit in the background?

Did you notice Amtrak 100 the dark the navy blue unit in the background?

Like the new paint schemes love the old bell Like the mass DOT blue and cranberry color I hate the purple

I used to remember when GP40MC 1131 and 1133 as non rebuilds. 2 years later, went into BET and came out with e-bells. I was like “damn 2 years later? Felt like 5 weeks” but over all i prefer both old and new. No matter how much 1134, 1127, gets older. Someday rebuild is going to happen. And i hope that they will have there original purple color scheme

Great thing is on Pittsburgh, they are going through purchasing all new light rail cars (84 total) as the current ones are way too old. This past budget cycle they put in 1 million dollars for design stage and such. They are submitting grants upwards to 100 million dollars to aide in the purchase as the total cost is expected to be 500 million.

Awesome video!

The MBTA sucks triple d

Have you seen any graffiti of the bluejay and racoon cartoon Mordecai and Rigby? On the tracks near Blackburn circle in Gloucester

Have you guys seen any graffiti of Mordecai and Rigby ANYWHERE in Gloucester near the tracks?

Where is the graffiti of Mordecai and Rigby that’s by train tracks any help is appreciated 😅

I’m going to miss the old Geeps. The new ones are still awesome. How would you feel if Amtrak rebuilt the AEM7s?

saw 1127 in a line of dead equipment at BET with 1125 last week. Looks like 1134s the only original left in service.

Long Live EMD! Long Live the GP40MC!

1127 is dead. 1134 is the last one kicking. It’s a fantastic pulling engine, it’s gonna be a sad day when it gets rebuilt

More 1100 rebuilds to come as 1118, 1127 and 1132 are down in Rochester. The automatic door system is called "Traction Interlock"

1117 also has ran the NEC in revenue I believe so that leaves 1125

Always will have 1134 as a favorite but I also enjoyed filming 1137 and 1138 in Rhode Island. Also eager to see 1129.

GP40s are my favorite MBTA locomotives. F40s my 2nd favorite. Not really a fan of the new round nosed locomotives whatever they’re called. HSP46s I think

Awesome video. The Heritage unit was on display at the Railfan day yesterday in Hyannis Being close to Rochester, I’m going to have to take a ride over. Thanks again

Great video well presented with excellent facts ......keep up the great work for to view

I found this quite an informative video! I've noticed that while some of the GP40MCs have e-bells _and_ LED lighting, others have only e-bells (but regular lighting), and still others retain their mechanical bells. Now, I know why: some were rebuilt at BET, others were sent to Rochester (I didn't know about that facility), and still others haven't been rebuilt yet. Thanks for the video!

I hope 1129 will be on the south side. Great video!
