A Splash Of Red
Just a fun take from this fun summer chase for today's Monochrome Monday offering.
On a rain soaked afternoon Vermont Rail System's Washington County Railroad train NPWJ (Newport to White River Junction) is southbound with two cars and two company red EMD GP38-2s, CLP 204 (blt. Oct. 1973 as SCL 528) and VTR 201 (blt. Dec. 1972 new for the VTR). The train is at about MP L69.8 on modern day WACR's Connecticut River Division Lyndonville Subdivision, the former Boston and Maine Conn River Line main which dates from 1848 when the Connecticut and Passumpsic Rivers Railroad built north from White River Junction. The misty hills in the background are across the river in Haverhill, New Hampshire. To learn much more history see the lengthy caption with this post: flic.kr/p/2q6eXDS
