I heard this somewhere, that trains don't run past the Mass. Ave crossing, but I'm not sure if it's fact or just a rumer.
Also, the circus train's there right now, for those Boston railfans.
I occasionally see a CSX geep and some reefers in Everett, and as far as I know, they get there via the "rat run". And I'm pretty sure Amtrak uses the same ROW to move downeaster equipment from south to north station.
