Taking the Gov for a ride

With General Manager Heuser at the helm pulling on the whistle cord blowing for Rice Rips Road, a westbound passenger extra is about to knock down the approach signal to the end of CTC at CPF 119 in Oakland. The newly aquired FP9's have only been painted a few months and are taking Governer Baldacci for a train ride to officially cut the ribbon on the Danville Junction reconfiguration project. The project consisted of removing the diamond and realigning the mainlines throught the small interchange yard. The project was jointly funded by Pan Am Railways, St. Lawrence & Atlantic Railroad and the State of Maine.
