No 11 Brownville Jct, ME 01-16-87
You can take the boy out of the state but you cant take the state out of the boy. With the creation of Guilford Transportation Industries my options were to find new employment or move to Billerica, I went west and never looked back. At least one trip per year was made back to Maine. Rumors were floating around that cuts were coming in the VIA system and the Atlantic would likely be a victim. So a trip to Brownville Jct where my railroad career started was made was made on one of those trips home, The frosting on the cake was a trip west to the meet on No 11, it was great being in the cab of an FPA again and even better yet when the crew said there was no free rides and I would have to work for my ride.
