The trainset is moving into position for the evening run.
Commuters hurry past, but more than a few pause to look at the new equipment.
It starts to snow as I again take photos, trying to contrast the Acela with the T trains and ancient F40's. First Class is at the front of the train. I take single seat 4F, and the attendant offers the Boston Globe. A large crowd is now aboard, and most seats are taken. Even first class has about 40 of the 44 seats occupied.
