BOSTON & MAINE P-4a 3713 "THE CONSTITUTION" |
| Description: |
I rode the last B&M steam run from Boston to Portland on April 22, 1956 - this is a water stop. Note the sanding as 3713 backs to the water standpipe. Built by Lima in 1934, 3713 was one of the last and heaviest Pacifics built. Now being restored at Steamtown. |

BOSTON & MAINE 3713 - LAST SERVICING |
| Description: |
I shot this photo without a tripod in available light at dusk at East Somerville (Boston). P-4a 4-6-2 3713 had just returned from Portland with an excursion which would be her last run. The Pacific is now being restored at Steamtown. |

BOSTON & MAINE - LAST STEAM RUN FROM PORTLAND |
| Description: |
B&M P-4b 4-6-2 3713 is backing the excursion train which just arrived in the late afternoon from Portland to the coach yard outside North Station, Boston. Some commuter trains would be steam powered for a few months. The relatively new highways obscure the station building. |

SUNSET ON BOSTON & MAINE STEAM |
| Description: |
B&M P-4-a 4-6-2 3713 has returned to the East Somerville engine terminal (Boston) and is being serviced after taking an excursion train to Portland. This may be the last photo of 3713 in steam. I shot her with available light. Built by Lima in 1934, the Pacific is being restored at Steamtown. Steam continued to power commuter trains for a few more months but 3713 pulled the last long distance steam train and was not suitable for the commuter trains. She lasted this long mainly because she was equipped to operate with a snow conveyor/melter. Note that only half the coal tower shows in the photo - it serviced six tracks. |
