Little Wacker

Washington County Railroad's (WACR or 'Wacker') Granite District is an 11 mile line that is isolated from the rest of Vermont Rail System; it extends from an interchange with New England Central at Montpelier Jct, through Vermont's state capitol, to the town and city of Barre. The line features grades up to 8% and two switchbacks. Most of the traffic is granite from Websterville that is loaded into gondolas. GMRC 804 and VTR 207 have 10 empties from the interchange heading to Barre to be spotted at the granite loadout.
