A daily CSX local, B7XX, has gathered several blocks of loaded C&D gons plus many empty box/reefer/tank cars from Framingham's Nevins Yard to take west to Worcester. Here it is passing west through the Southborough T station at 9 AM with an impressive collection of road power. The local may make a pick-up at the Westborough transload on its way to Worcester, where the consist will sit for several hours to be divided among the 2 wb road freights that head for Selkirk Yard, Q427 off Pan Am and Q115 off the P&W. The B7XX local is CSX's only freight handling eastern Massachusetts traffic west to Selkirk - a few years ago, this would have been road freight Q437 that went non-stop to Selkirk
