The Day Cape Codder

Once we were moving east again, we rolled smoothly through East Sandwich, West Barnstable and Yarmouth before reaching Hyannis. (The stub of the former Provincetown line beyond Yarmouth to South Dennis was “excepted track,” unavailable to passenger trains.) At Hyannis, we pulled right to the end of track at the Cape Cod Central depot and detrained passengers. Some stretched their legs, some visited the gift shop, some took photos – many visited the restrooms!
