Slumming

With the lack of much interesting happening in my corner of the railfan world, I've been picking off shots one by one extremely close to home that I've always wanted with more interesting locomotives. With CSX the new chief boot knocker in the area, better power just isn't coming along very often, so might as well just hold my nose and fire away. Here's M427 taking the designated CSX track just before entering the Lincoln Square Tunnel on the lower reaches of the P&W Gardner Branch - their link between the B&A at CP 45 and former Pan Am trackage at Barber. If you look carefully you can see the sign for MP1, passing a couple of 'mobile' Worcester residences on the way. I eschewed the usual shot atop the WPI Gateway parking garage, in favor of an angle not done quite as often. Thanks to the birdy for letting me know when they were pulling up anchor and heading west.
