John, I grew up in Billerica, Ma and ironically, I had little idea (in the 70's) Boston & Maine's shops were literally in my backyard. Now Owned by Guilford Transportation, Headquartered on High Street in North Billerica, MA.(I wish I knew then what I know now...)Anyway, I'm sure you can contact them to get both permission (to photo from their property-closeups-)and also get some idea where and when the heaviest traffic occurs to facilitate your voyeristic RR tendencies. (like all of us)I have found their Public relations department very hospitable. MBTA in Boston. MA will yeild your commuter schedules in advance, or grab 'em in person @ North Station, now called the Fleet Center. When I visited home a few yrs. ago, I connived my best friend into driving (on my wallet) to New Hampshire to snap shots of the last operating ball signal in the U.S. .Check 'em out @ www.Tex-n.org on the photos page. I think the town's name is Whitefield, NH. <br />(I-93 north to US-3 north @ NH-116.)It's a hike, but for me, it is heaven in NH mtns. the scenery is just soooo relaxing. I think the NHVT RR still operates that portion of ROW. anyway, have fun whatever you choose to do!
