BOSTON & MAINE MOGUL
Title:  BOSTON & MAINE MOGUL
Description:  I sometimes found a 2-6-0 standing half way out the East Somerville roundhouse (Boston), usually in the company of the more numerous Pacifics. This is B-15c 1498 built by Manchester in 1910, scrapped 1956. Moguls were used on commuter trains out of North Station until the end of B&M steam in 1956.
