My Cab Ride to Boston.

In the ā€˜90s when I was working in BELLCORE; a woman popped into my office and I hear that you're into trains. I said very much so. She replied that her Dad was an Amtrak Conductor working  NY to Boston, and he could get me a cab ride. Several months later I had a business meeting scheduled in Boston. I reached out to her and arranged my ride. He said to buy a ticket and meet him on the platform at a particular spot.  He took me up to the front end and introduced me to the Engineer. I started taking pictures when we got out of Sunnyside Yard. Iā€™m going to post the pictures in 3 sections.  Starting with the Hellgate bridge.
