No trains are at Riverside, and the platform needs 
		shoveling from the late-season snow in this peaceful scene.  Everything on the ground is 
		still a brilliant white, and the storm's ending had been very recent.  
		 
		Some of my earliest Boston transit memories are at this station, from a 
		December day (without snow) in 1965.  I was young, with an 
		inexpensive camera that I didn't use very much.  I had flown up 
		from New York City for my first Boston experience.  The line was in 
		its initial decade of service, and PCCs were the only method of 
		transportation.  I took one photo then, now apparently long lost to the 
		ages.  |
