Passing the yard

Monson 4 passes the Maine Narrow Gauge Railroad Company's yard in South Portland. In the foreground, the body of a former Bridgton & Saco River boxcar is used as a shed to house wood used for starting the locomotives.

 

The sun is already heading for the horizon as this Guest Engineer train runs east past Fish Point, on Portland's Eastern Promenade.

 

On this day, the Maine Narrow Gauge Railroad Company & Museum was running it's Guest Engineer Program, in which patrons can purchase a ticket allowing them to run the locomotive under supervision, for an hour and a half.
