The Boston, Revere Beach and Lynn Railroad was the largest single factor in the development and growth of Revere, states George Clarke, in The Story of Revere Beach. Popularly known as The Narrow Gauge, that operated from Lynn to East Boston. Prior to 1896, its road bed followed a path that traced the crescent shape of the coastline. The train operated along Railroad Avenue, which today is named Revere Beach Boulevard, then it was removed and relocated four hundred yards to the west. The MBTA currently runs its Blue line along the same roadbed. In its heyday passengers would patronize the train from stations all along the resort area.

Bobs Photo. Softcover. New. Softcover, 48 pages, B&W photographs with captions, color covers, high-quality glossy paper. The focus of this book is on the steam locomotive classes of the Delaware &, Hudson that were in common operation during the late 1930s and 1940s. During this time, the D&H went from a coal hauler to a bridge carrier where train speeds were important for connections with other railroads. By 1950, 233 steam locomotives remained on the roster, 182 in freight service, twenty-six in Passenger Service and twenty-five in switching operations. By 1953, diesel switchers and Road-Switchers had replaced all active steam power. Under Joseph H. Nuelle, ninth president of the D&H, motive power requirements changed. Nuelle ordered from ALCO twenty Challenger 4-6-6-4 locomotives for the bridge traffic. Numbered 1500-1519, they were quickly followed by fifteen, #1520-1534, more in 1942 (page 41). Under the Nuelle administration, the D&H also ordered fifteen modern dual service 4-8-4s for delivery… Read More
