DHL Boeing 767-338(ER) (BDSF) N371CM climbs off Runway 28R at Chicago O'Hare as ABEX 983 to East Midlands.
Sure, it's just a geep, but who doesn't love one?! CSXT 6222 is an EMD GP40-2 blt. Feb. 1979 as Baltimore and Ohio 4323 and delivered in bright Chessie System paint.
CSXT Readville based local B710 is seen trundling light engine west through the Boston Business Park after spotting up ABEX. The Boston Business Park is right next to freight yard and in sight of the little yard office at where this crew signs up. This park is home to a couple of CSX customers of which ABEX is by far the busiest. They are a warehousing and distribution company specializing in beverages and CSX delivers many carloads of beer, wine, and spirits destined to thirsty individuals throughout the commonwealth! This is the business that used to be handled out of the Foxboro Terminals off the south end of the Framingham Secondary.
Both CSXT's former New Haven Readville Yard and this business park sit right on the very south end of the Boston city limits with part of each facility in the town of Dedham. In fact, the GP40-2 seen here is still in the latter, but will cross the Boston city line just to the right when they couple up to the boxcars to begin switching.
B710 is one of two locals remaining out of what now constitutes the last freight yard within the city limits of Boston. In addition to working the two customers here they responsible for servicing the Route 128 industrial park in Norwood off the NEC and the last freight customers on the Stoughton Branch and East Walpole Industrial Track. B731 is the other Readville based job, a Mon-Fri daylight turn that shuttles cars from Readville to Framingham and return, making a set off and pick up as necessary in Walpole on the way.
Whether or not these are truly the last freight jobs based in Boston is a matter of debate since the south throat of the Readville yard and the office where crews actually sign up is in Dedham, so you decide if these count!

I swung by CSXT’s ex New Haven Readville yard on the far southern edge of Boston after work one morning this week to see what local B710 was up to. Like something out of another era the vast majority of traffic that flows through Readville is still box car and reefer traffic and the largest customer served by CSXT out of Readville is ABEX located in the Boston Business Park adjacent to the yard. They are a warehousing and distribution company specializing in alcoholic beverages, and CSX delivers many carloads of beer, wine, and spirits destined to thirsty individuals throughout the commonwealth! This is the business that used to be handled out of the Foxboro Terminals on the south end of the Framingham Secondary.
While passing through the yard yet another string of boxcars were present but this one jumped right out at me, and I had to stop and grab a few frames. Those of you who know me personally know that the Denver and Rio Grande Western is unquestionably my favorite road so to find an original Grande car still carrying its own reporting marks out here in New England is quite a treat….even if it is faded, dirty, and covered in graffiti. DRGW 50801 is an AAR Class RBL Type 610 insulated boxcar. This 61 ft 80 ton car was part of a 100 unit order (Lot 2870) built by Pacific Car and Foundry for the Rio Grande in May 1979 and probably hauled more than a few loads of Coors beer east from Golden in her prime.
I don’t shoot a lot of freight car photos. But these old road names are aging out fast. I should shoot more…

This awesome portrait of Mark Rothko is just a little taste of our Tumblr blog! Check out our latest inspirations: matthewsgallery.tumblr.com
This work is part of Krasner’s Little Image series of the late 1940s, which she began soon after she and her husband, Jackson Pollock, moved from New York City to Springs, New York, on Long Island. Working in a small bedroom she used as her studio, she applied thick paint—sometimes directly from the tube—in rhythmic and repetitive strokes, giving equal attention to every inch of the canvas. Like many of her peers, Krasner invented a language of private symbols that implied but did not specify meaning.
And this is what the Lee Krasner said about this series:
I had to study Hebrew and I had to learn to write in Hebrew. I can neither read it today nor can I write.
But I have endless messages that go on indefinitely in a kind of hieroglyph of some sort which certainly isnt true Hebrew or any other language. And I cant say that consciously I can relate it to any specific thing. But suddenly it was there, so it shows up in a bit in the painting at that time.
