Willey Brook
Conway Scenic's 1751 makes its way over the Willey Brook Trestle on its way back from Whitefield. While at Whitefield, a NHCR crew brought the 1751 past the diamond on the old Boston & Maine Berlin branch to pick up a former Boston & Maine boxcar and a former Maine Central bulkhead that the Conway Scenic bought from the state of New Hampshire for $2. The Maine Central bulkhead is the last of the original 20 that the Maine Central converted from 40' gondolas. The boxcar is supposed to be repainted in Boston & Maine paint and both cars will eventually be added to their mixed freight train for Railfan's weekend. While it would've been nice to get them crossing with sunlight, a brief rain shower and some rumbles of thunder dashed that. Considering how unlikely it is that they'll have another freight move like this I'll take what I can get.
