This link points to Penn Central's June 1, 1974 edition of "Through Freight Schedules"" http://www.canadasouthern.com/caso/images/pc-freight-74a.pdf
Page 63 shows that BV-9 departed S Boston at 5AM with a Pot Yard block (guess that's why there a "V" in its symbol?) and a Selkirk block. BV-9 picked up cars at Readville, set-off cars for NE-1 at Walpole, picked up cars at Framingham, picked up cars at Worcester from B&M RW-1 and locals(?), and then terminated at Selkirk at 6:45PM. Great picture and fascinating 286 page PC document!
