All Green At Ossipee
108 miles from North Station is the reason the old Boston and Maine Conway Branch survives. This is the Ossipee Aggregates sand pit that feeds the insatiable thirst of owner Boston Sand and Gravel's cement plant in the heart of the city. With Boston always changing and reinventing itself new construction is a near constant and the flow of material never stops.
Three quarters of the railroad's roster is seen here, NHN 3823 (GP38-2 blt. Sept. 1978 as CR 8242), 1801 (GP18 blt. Feb. 1960 as CRIP 1341), and 3825 (GP38-2 blt. Sept. 1978 as CR 8244).
