CSSSB 505
Title:  CSSSB 505
Description:  We definitely wanted to try to catch a South Shore train today especially when we were this close to the line, well it didnt work out as planned. We didnt know that this road went over the top of the tracks and that the bridge was too narrow to park anywhere. My dad ended up not getting a photo and I didt get a great one either. Well, hopefully next weekend we get some better ones.
