⁴ᴷ⁶⁰ Vintage 1940s PCC Streetcars on Boston’s Ashmont-Mattapan Line (2023)

The Ashmont–Mattapan High-Speed Line, commonly referred to as the Mattapan Trolley is a partially grade-separated light rail line that forms part of the MBTA’s Red Line rapid transit line. The line, which runs through Boston and Milton, Massachusetts, opened on August 26, 1929, as a conversion of a former commuter rail line. It exclusively uses PCC streetcars, supported by a maintenance team of blacksmiths and metalworkers who make parts for the historic rolling stock. Enjoy this view of a very unusual operation!
