ALCO PAs at BOSTON SWITCH
Title:  ALCO PAs at BOSTON SWITCH
Description:  I shot the New Haven ALCO PA-1s westbound at Boston Switch in Central Falls, RI, an easy walk from where I grew up. Note that the units don't "match" because the early paint scheme had white below and the final scheme had red below. The NH had 27 PAs but at the time of the photo they were being supplanted by FL9s and road switchers. Boston Switch is where the old Boston & Providence (now Amtrak) joined the Providence & Worcester for a joint trackage arrangement to Providence. The P&W in the foreground predated the B&P which originally used a different route into Providence. It was a treat to hear the engineer notch out the throttle as the end of the train left the sharp curve. The date of the photo is an approximate guess since I failed to mark my slide.

New Haven PAs at Boston Switch
Title:  New Haven PAs at Boston Switch
Description:  The westbound is joining the original Providence & Worcester route built in 1847 through Central Falls. The next year the Boston & Providence built a 4.4 mile extension from its main line to here (Boston Switch-the "west junction"). The B&P had built its main line to India Point in 1835 but when the P&W and New York, Providece & Boston built a Providence Union Station on the Cove, the B&P could only reach the new station by using the P&W route from Boston Switch.

New Haven PA's with Yankee Clipper
Title:  New Haven PA's with Yankee Clipper
Description:  Train is westbound coming off the connector built by the Boston & Providence from its main line near Hebronville, MA to Boston Switch in Central Falls RI. The 4.4 mile line was built in order to join the Providence & Worcester (on the left) to use its route to the new Union Depot on the Providence Cove. The tower was erected in 1915 when the line through Pawtucket was rerouted and was used for only 20 years. Woodlawn tower -SS 154- was built in 1915 at the other end of the new route and assumed the duties of SS 156 when it closed in 1935. I regret that I no longer have accurate dates for the slides in this album so please disregard the dates given.

New Haven PA and DL-109
Title:  New Haven PA and DL-109
Description:  Boston bound express passing under Pawtucket-Central Falls station which was opened in 1916 over the border of the two cities. Before the line relocation the tracks went straight ahead into downtown Pawtucket and the old station at Exchange Place. The new route was about 750 feet north of the original line. The station was closed in 1960 and finding another use for the derelict is still discussed.
