ORANGE LINE 1975

When I heard they were going to take the Orange Line down in 1975 I took my trusty 8mm camera and stood at the front of the first train to take pictures. This is the way I travelled from the north to my job in Boston. I apologize for the quality but I had no way of cleaning the glass. A few months later they tore down this section of the elevated subway. It starts at North Station and proceeds to Everett through the now demolished Sullivan Sq. Station. It passes by the old Boston Garden and 150 Causeway St. bldgs which are now gone. I can still hear the screech of the steel rails as the trains turn the corner onto the North Washington Bridge.
