 Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority (MBTA)
MBTA trains operate two Boston stations: North Station and South Station; the latter also serves as the northern terminus of Amtrak’s Northeast Corridor.
The MBTA followed through on those plans, acquiring commuter lines from the Penn Central (New Haven’s successor) in 1973, and Boston and Maine in 1975, as well as passenger equipment from BandM.
Motive power for MBTA commuter trains is supplied by EMD F40PHs; F40PH-2Cs from EMD and Morrison-Knudsen (equipped with a separate Cummins head-end power engine), which were later overhauled by MotivePower Industries (and the Cummins HEP engines replaced with Caterpillar generators); and GP40MCs rebuilt from Canadian National GP40s by Alstom predecessor AMF Transport.

 Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority (MBTA)
The Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority serves the city of Boston and outlying areas with 11 different commuter lines and 121 stations covering 402 route miles.
Created on August 3, 1964 as a planning and operations agency for Boston's mass transit system (and successor to the Metropolitan Transit Authority), the MBTA a year later began subsidizing commuter rail services provided by the Boston and Maine, New Haven, and New York Central railroads.
In 1977, the MBTA awarded Boston and Maine the contract to operate the South Station commuter trains, after Conrail asked for an increased operating subsidy.

 Boston DNC Convention 2004 - Page 4 - Anatomy of an inevitable taxpayer mugging
The FleetCenter is snuggled between the brand-new I-93 tunnels and the Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority's North Station.
Turnpike authority officials had promised to let the city control a swath of land that once held the elevated Central Artery for protest space and bus parking in the cramped area around the FleetCenter, convention planners said.
Yet that Woburn interchange is miles away from the FleetCenter, and drivers may clamor for the road to remain open all the way to Somerville where they could try their luck on secondary arteries, such as Routes 16 or 99.
