Bellows Falls is a good location. Try also the NECR and CSX crossing at Palmer, MA, as there's always railfans there. Try also the Amtrak station at Springfield, MA. Parking may be tight downtown but the platforms are open. Also try the Amtrak Route 128 station on the Northeast corridor. It's an on-off road from I-95 (Route 128) with lots of MBTA locals but no Boston auto traffic. You could ride the MBTA into Boston and photograph the trolley and rapid transit trains, but write the MBTA for permission if you are on the transit property. From streets, it's OK. Boston does have an extensive suburban service - try any route in the rush hour. One choice would be Reading, MA. For trolleys, there's the museum at Branford, CT, and Warehouse Point, CT, and also Kennebunport, ME. Remember also Conway Scenic in Conway, NH. If you are leaving New England via Albany, NY, stop at the Amtrak station there. Good luck.
