An even bigger crime against the people than the big dig.

My late Uncle John Morra was a water works engineer and worked for a waterworks engineering firm from the late 60s into the 90s trying to fix and come up with solutions to the aqueducts leading out of the impoundment. There are a lot of problems with the aqueduct mainly the one going to Boston. Rip Uncle John 💞

It's always amazing to me how few residents of Massachusetts know about the treasure of Quabbin. It's almost as though anyone living east of Athol has never even heard of it.

I think we should flood boston and get the real swift river back probably was probably amazing place to fish now it's just fucking farm fish lord chist have mercy on us we ruin the natural world

It’s crazy , that you’ve begun the video, acting like no one knew, or knows, what was left and what was covered. I’ve just had my 50 th anivesary, of living 4 miles, away in Wendell. I spent the 1st 25 years with an entire set of town residents, who had been born and raised, right where I met them. Rupert Goddard, Merle and Gladys Powling, Jack and Donnie, brother’s at the end of the main’ depot rd, who were boys, when the shipp fell apart. Dale Monette, had been the digital photography keeper of the orig. photos from 1929, when they took, a 1st plate photo of the house(to be taken) and the 2 nd of the id of the info. My good friend, watched his grandparents, move out of Dana, to Shutesbury. Everything in our area, is a less than sacred reminder, of what that era , meant to us. I’m 70 , my father and gran dad, big lawyers from Lancaster, Clinton, Sterling,, where the Wachusett, water supply, was formed first by the first push, which is a legendary supply that runs down the Rt. 2 corridor, to bean town. My grandfather, lived in Lancaster, rode the train to Boston every day, never owned a car,ran the biggest law firm in town, from the 30’s on. They both watched the development.

This is great. Domenic mcfarlin

Thanks for the video, i will be doing mine in the morning. Only difference is i will only be replacing where the leak is.

Just started watching, hope they explain how they filled the reservoir? Where they diverted the water source from etc?

Why doesn’t our residents in Belchertown receive property tax break for the water Belchertown supplies to Boston?

My father who was born in Spfld. in 1905 had about 6 photos of N. Dana I donated to the Quabbin museum the one I remember was the 1 garage fire dept. with a bell on the roof...

This was an excellent documentary, I really enjoyed it and it was well put together. Cheers to a job well done and to preserving the history that preceded the Quabbin.

How many lives were ruined by the state to build this

Yeah this was terrible for those required to move, but metro Boston is the main economic engine for the state, and without enough water, we'd all be much poorer.

Wow, fascinating documentary. Sad for the railroaded families. Glad you shared the story! Thank you.

Bro was an undercover freak the whole time 😂😂

He got lost but i pray he find his way back

A Teenager Can Play That!?!?!?

Now he’s getting accused of having a trio with a man. We need to come back to Jesus. Dwight knows its the way in his heart.

Man, fuck the government.

My granpa lived and moved out of quabbin it was in the depreshion so they where all broke so geting money for the land at the time was good and of corse some dident want to go I live in belchertown next town to quabbin we have a common in center of town granpa worked building the place pushing roller across the dam

i've seen a book,,, pictures and info, older book, one picture was of a granite structure, slate roof,, all around that , all structures were torn down,,, my thought was they didn't care, cause it was stone, that they left it there, i don't know.

Western Mass has always been the redheaded step child to the Boston and Eastern part of our state. They have the money and essentially control everything. It’s sad what they did to those people and I am sure it destroyed many of those peoples lives. Losing everything dear and close to you, never to see it again. That all said it’s a beautiful area and the water is very clear, so Boston won, as they always do.

Oh yeah!!!!

Forensic files guy my favorite narrator Peter Thomas I believe talking about my favorite fishing hole

There is a very rare rattlesnake a DRC emoyee told me about living on one of the quabbin islands. it is indigenous to the area and has the distinction of having no rattle on the end of its tail. Local residents have been killing them on sight, but it is now illegal since it is now protected. The state says the snake is quarrentteed on an island, but the residents say that is nonsense because the island has a causeway, connecting to the mainland. The state must assume the snakes will obey the 'stay out' signed posted on the connector and not migrate off the island for fear of substantial fines.

I lived in Worcester all my life and would fish the Quabbin during the summer months. Would rent a boat at gate 64 i think ? In ware. Had a 10hp Mercury engine. So peaceful and quiet. 🤗🤔😎

I have seen them there twice before , but missed this concert unfortunately. Always a great show..

Is Johny still playing? I hope so.

Composed just 10 minutes from where i'm sitting❤️🇵🇷

Destroying a town to make way for a reservoir is the back story in the great movie "Deliverance".

They still have it! Thanks heaps for sharing.

Maybe the Great Depression was created to get the people to build the Quabbin for next to nothing

Wow nice seats! I was up on the mezzanine, great show. I posted the Bass/Drummers jamming and solos with that crazy groove to welcome the band back onto stage.

Thanks for sharing !!!

People like the mother that owned the hot dog stand are a blessing to us.

I live here

Wow a great testimony!

Imagine if they tried to pull this today.

Dorman makes a kit for '96-'98 Jeep ZJ 4.0 Part #624-306, I paid about $40 at Napa. Includes both hot and return steel/rubber lines, including all fittings.

The quabbin is one of the few bodies of water, that you can take a boat on, look over the side, & see all the way to the bottom, as easy as looking at your feet. Ive lived near it for decades, & aside from the snakes, its very nice

Doesn’t this guy narrate Forensic Files, too?

So. those two transmission lines, to which would I connect the top radiator trans cooler line to?

i made my own brake line for wj, flared it and all

so the TOP trans oil cooler lines from the radiator, attach to which skinny hose? the top or bottom? i see one skinny line under there has a check vale. would the long line from radiator attach to that hose?

Me who lives only 43 minutes away 💪🏻

Same narrator as on forensic files. What a great voice! I keep thinking he's going to talk about a gruesome crime.

that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. Romans 10:9 God bless you 😇🙏

The problem is that the heat from the exhaust ruins the rubber pipes
