MBTA Test Train on South Coast Rail New Bedford Line - 6/20/2024

Here's a quick video of "high speed" testing on the New Bedford Line taken today in Freetown, MA. The first shot shows the train on the passing siding at Braley Rd. then we get two runbys at Chase Rd. The siding, which was built where the second track once was until 1949, runs between Chase Rd. and Chipaway Rd. This was my first time I was able to film anything on that track since it was installed.
