James’s first annual captains’ training brings him out of North County and into Boston for what he thinks will be two days of wasted time. And his opinion is only solidified when the Foundation for Paranormal Studies springs a practical training session on them in the form of a scavenger hunt along the Boston area’s public transit lines. But when injuries occur along the line and the Foundation stops answering questions, James and his colleagues start to question if this is a simulation after all. Matters aren’t helped when a simple congratulations note sends James into an existential crisis, questioning everything about his life and career. But maybe he’s just overthinking when his focus needs to be on the task at hand. Is this training session an elaborate project set up by the Foundation for the captains’ benefit? Or is there something else going on? Park Street Station is Book 6 in the North County Paranormal Unit series!
A richly illustrated story of public transit in one of America’s most historic cities, from public ferry and horse-drawn carriage to the MBTA. A lively tour of public transportation in Boston over the years, Boston in Transit maps the complete history of the modes of transportation that have kept the city moving and expanding since its founding in 1630—from the simple ferry serving an English settlement to the expansive network of the Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority, or MBTA. The story of public transit in Boston—once dubbed the Hub of the Universe—is a journey through the history of the American metropolis. With a remarkable collection of maps and architectural and engineering drawings at hand, Steven Beaucher launches his account from the landing where English colonists established that first ferry, carrying passengers between what is now Boston’s North End and Charlestown—and sparing them what had been a two-day walk around Boston Harbor. In the 1700s, horse-drawn coaches appeared on the scene, connecting Boston and Cambridge, with the bigger, better Omnibus soon to follow. From horse-drawn coaches, horse-drawn railways evolved, making way for the electric streetcar networks that allowed the city’s early suburbs to sprout—culminating in the multimodal, regional public transportation network in place in Boston today. With photographs, brochures, pamphlets, guidebooks, timetables, and tickets, Boston in Transit creates a complete picture of the everyday experience of public transportation through the centuries. At once a practical reference, local history, and travelogue, this book will be cherished by armchair tourists, day-trippers, and serious travelers alike.
