A car-side view of an Orange Line elevated train plunging into the Washington Street Subway "Essex" portal by Ash Street in the South End. The tunnel dates back to 1904. It was connected to the "El" in 1908. The old Boston Floating Hospital, now New England Medical Center, lays straight ahead. Re-routing for the Orange Line has eliminated this entrance.
