Having traveled 10 1/2 miles east from the end of their rare mileage trip to Quebec Junction Boston and Maine F7 4266 and Maine Central GP7 573 (EMD blt. Mar. 1949 and Sep. 1950 respectively) are back on the regularly used rails here at MP 89 east of Fabyan Station as they roll their nine car 470 Railroad Club special (with GP35 216 on the rear) over the Ammonoosuc River. They still have one more photo stop at Crawford Notch planned before making the long 1400 ft 2.2% descent down the old Maine Central Mountain Sub.
