Easing down to a stop at Readville.

A Franklin coach train will soon overtake LB-2. Its a good looking train, dominated by large, modern box cars. It will feed a number of locals, serving the large distribution warehouses outside Boston. The down side was; the high value loads on LB-2 arrived on New Haven rails only after providing long haul revenue to either New York Central or Boston and Maine.
