Another soggy day at the Great Bore...

The 314, 301 and 305 finally get the highball aspect eastbound, at this unmistakeable scene just outside of E. Portal of the famed Hoosac Tunnel. The folklore and stories of its construction always seem amplified even to this day, when eerie, soggy weather add to the mystique.

Photographed by John A. Taylor, August 24, 1978.

So beautiful; amplified by the small, piercing, laser-like green dot
