PWBO - Millbury, MA - 2016
Prior to the purchase of the Providence and Worcester by the G&W, a loaded limestone train for Bow, New Hampshire, is seen hustling it’s way though Millbury with a couple of interesting visitors up front.
Laying over in Worcester from a previous nights ethanol train, a CN C40-8 and an NS SD70ACU were used to rescue the heavy limestone train. The train stalled in Northbridge due to being underpowered. Shocker.
After seeing some of CN’s dash 8’s hauling limestone on the Iron Range in Minnesota, I thought it was interesting having this one on the east coast moving a different type of limestone train. Back then, it was a dream of mine to see them out in their element on Canadian National property. Glad I can say I was finally able to!
