MBTA Commuter Rail: a Comprehensive Aerial Tour

Audio has been muted between 4:19 and 4:39 due to a copyright issue. The song I used said it was royalty-free, but I suppose it got claimed anyway. Nice.
Hi. I'm Sam, a railfan based out of Eastern Massachusetts. I film trains from all around the world and make narrated videos explaining how the railroad works. Thanks for watching and I'll see you out on the mainline!

3:16 the track where BO-1 often sits that you show is called the valley track. Also, the "BET bypass" track is the Grand Junction. awesome vid!

[@BostonBeaconPark]

Well done Sam, I was looking forward to this video.

[@brentlowry3078]

Traveled the MBTA all my life, thanks for the vid. Looking forward to the next one.

Fantastic video, much love from this Fitchburg train chaser! I've always wondered about the yards. I could do nothing but watch yard operation drone footage from you with that perfect chillwave soundtrack running in the background for hours at a time, honestly. Absolutely wonderful! 💕 My one small criticism is that you really need to slow down your speech! You're fantastically informative, and a brilliant writer, but I found it hard to digest everything because of the pace. Slow down a bit and you've got a great career in public speaking! Thanks for a great video!

Thanks so much for this. Great to see exclusive footage of the MBTA yards in my home state.

[@rusticrailproductions4804]

I used to see the readville yard almost all the time

[@dennisdownes9319]

Great video!! DD

[@syeet1234]

This is really cool

[@bukasb]

I didn't know that a future shop is going to be relocated to Iron Horse Park in Billerica. I wish that the old B&M / MEC maintenance shop would be used for that purpose again by the MBTA, give it some purpose while preserving history.

[@duckbow]

Really great video, Sam! Drone shots were spectacular, and appreciate you following the airspace rules. Been riding the commuter rail since my first job, and have a soft spot for it despite smelling like diesel exhaust afterwards. Would love to see an in depth on the equipment, as well as the engine issues you mentioned. Do you know if there is track connecting N and S station traffic? Subscribed!

[@massrailvideos]

Middle borough layover yard

[@thebigbluesteamengine63]

I like mbta commuter service

[@ericschwartz3559]

That’s not all of the mbta commuter rail yards. You forgot the fitchburg yard and bradford layover yard.

[@massrailvideos]

How did you get in there Sam?

[@NERJ607]

Providence yard? I know there’s a yard there for providence line I pass it while riding Amtrak.. I also always see at least one or two MBTA’s there

[@massrailvideos]

That’s a layover yard.
