CSXT 479 Leads M426 Past the Steaming Tender
One of the easier to identify manifests of the B&A; M426, passes the iconic Steaming Tender restaurant in Palmer, Massachusetts.
This train typically has an ACSES equipped leader as that kind of PTC is required to run over the Keolis shared portions of the former Pan Am lines. The high abundance of 50ft boxcars and empty centerbeams going east are also another giveaway.
The bright side of this bridge is near impossible to shoot with vegetation coming right up along the main, so I figured a darksider from the west side would do.
