            New Haven Railroad DERS-4 class EMD GP-9 diesel electric locomotive # 1207, leads a departing passenger train from South Station at Boston, Massachusetts, ca early 1960's.  This train appears to be a local commuter train, with a very mixed consist of equipment, including Osgood Bradley (American Flyer) coaches, heavyweight coaches, and it appears that on old the old Pullman Parlor car to coach conversion cars is also included.  Not only is the consist mixed, but the paint schemes applied to the cars are also mixed.  It is neat to view the old long arm  semaphores mounted to the signal bridges.  In the background behind the locomotive, you can view one of the Fort Channel bridges.  The name of the photographer that captured this image on film is unknown.
