US ARMY ALCO MSR-1 B-2096

Description:  "War Zone" - MRS-1 is standing in the remains of the Charles Street Roundhouse which was in the process of being razed except for the machine shop and new 3-stall section. The MSR-1 is one of 38 Transportation Corp. engines of various types borrowed by the NH from August 1955 to as late as June 1956 to help rebuild after flooding. Note the white walls - from my memories in steam roundhouses in Boston, Montreal, etc. roundhouses were white for better vision.

PROVIDENCE RI TUNNEL
Title:  PROVIDENCE RI TUNNEL
Description:  New Haven ALCO DL109 0728 emerges from the mile long New Haven RR tunnel under College Hill in Providence, RI with a fantrip originating in Boston. The tunnel was originally electrified when opened in 1908 and until the 1930's MU trains ran through on 15 minute headways. The tunnel has been closed for many years but a shorter tunnel the NH's RICO subsidiary built for trollies is still used for buses. I took the slide from the end of the mail and express sidings while waiting to board the fan trip at Union Station in May 1956. The trip would proceed to Worcester and then down the N&W line, then over to the "Valley" line to Saybrook and the Shoreline back.
