On the old narrow-gauge ROW.

A 1923 Pullman Number 1 train-set is pulling out of the yards of the Orient Heights Shops in this view, crossing over the outbound tracks and heading inbound, where its destination will be Bowdoin Station. Orient Heights Yard Tower "T" can be seen straight ahead, which has given the double red signal to outbound traffic, until the train has cleared the turnout. This section of the line is the meeting point on the line which uses the old ROW of the Boston, Revere Beach and Lynn Railroad. The MBTA follows this path northward to its terminus, Wonderland Station. The Orient Heights Yard and Shops themselves, is the area where B R B & L RR also maintained and stored their equipment.
