Remarks & Notes 
A pair of MBTA "all electric" PCCs prepare to depart from the Arborway loop for a trip to downtown Boston via Huntington Avenue. Twenty-five of Boston's 346 PCCs were of this design, in which electric motors and solenoids replaced compressed air for brake activation, door operation, and other functions. These cars were retired in 1978.

The MBTA is very dear to me. The first trains I ever rode as a toddle to teenager were those of the "T" Here is a collection of MBTA Subway and trolley I have found on RP from the 60's thru today.

Pictures of trains from the Boston area and Florida when I was younger, things that I remember but did not have a good camera to capture.
