‘We are hungry for rail’: Legislators hold meeting prior to Route 2 passenger service study > > >Published: 7/13/2021 4:56:34 PM
Imagine you live in Greenfield in 1956. It’s Bill Russell’s rookie year with the Boston Celtics and you’ve got tickets to a game at the Boston Garden.
You go to the local train station and at 2:55 p.m. board a car that is already half full, having connected people in Troy, N.Y., at 12:45 p.m., North Adams at 1:51 and Shelburne Falls at 2:28. You step off the train in Boston’s North Station at 5:15 p.m. and still have time for dinner before the game starts.

âOpportunities and Constraints.â
Lots of both, actually.
The phrase appeared on a slide early on, as Makaela Niles of the state Department of Transportation described her teamâs plan, over the next year-and-a-half, to gauge the feasibility of enabling people to travel by rail between North Adams and Boston. Like an earlier study of east-west passenger rail travel across the stateâs midsection, including Pittsfield, this venture was ordered up by the Legislature.
