Visitor Comments about this Photo:

Yes, I can vaguely remember the Fords being unloaded there. They came down from the B&A at Framingham. PC was too cheap to pave it to keep the dust and mud down, so Ford packed up and moved to Ayer on the B&M. Later, 1975 I worked for a few months in Readville yard. PC might have used it then for dead storage, I forget. Long time ago. I was on the B&A roster anyways, not the NH one. Nice shot though.
