The Paperweight
Life has been fairly busy the last little while, however I'm currently baching it up, while my wife and kids are visiting family in NB. This has allowed me a bit more time to get out, and last week after dropping everyone off was a good way to kick off a long-awaited chase. I was joined by fellow Flickr'er and friend Matt Landry at most of the locations as we chased NBSR 907 from Saint John to the border. The sun prevailed more oft than the pesky clouds, and this location was a prime example of just that. Drawing four properly painted six axles for power, the crew of NBSR 907 wastes no time coming into Hoyt, approaching Fredericton Jct. Upon arrival at Welsford, the crew called the Yard Planner in SJ to notify him of 8144 crapping the bed, even though it was fresh out of the shop, and thus immediately gained the nickname of a paperweight. I think at some point later throughout the trip with much troubleshooting, the crew did eventually get 8144 running again.
