The Cathedral Church of St. George is located on Grenville Street in Kingstown, St. Vincent and the Grenadines, West Indies. The Cathedral is the mother church of the Diocese of the Windward Islands, which is part of the Province of the West Indies. The Cathedral Church of St. George is nearly two hundred years old. It has a typical 16th century architecture with stained glass windows, wall plaques, a hanging chandelier and quaint adornments.
The St. George's Cathedral was built on the site of an earlier Anglican Church which was destroyed by a hurricane in 1780. The new church dedicated on the 1st September 1820.
Seaview's local switcher set's up the outbound pickup for the Providence and Worcester's nightly train from Worcester, MA. On the headpin is P&W GP38-3 #2010 that was left behind by Valley Falls local PR-3, earlier that afternoon.
Seaview's SW-7 #5 was built in 1950 as New York Central #8851. In the early 70's, she was picked up by Conrail. The unit retained the #8851 number and ended up being outfitted with Flexicoil trucks at some point. In the late 80's, the SW-7 ended up on the Providence and Worcester as P&W #1202, with sister SW-7 #1201 (NYC #8845). And finally in the early 2000's, the little EMD ended up on the Seaview Railroad where she remains but is currently out of service after throwing a rod.

Mar. 1951 as Pittsburgh and Lake Erie number 8940 it was sold to the Bangor and Aroostook in 1972 where it spend more than two more decades before being sold for industrial use.

In the foreground is Old Colony and Newport Railroad side rod GE 45 tonner number 84. Built in 1942, I'm not sure of its heritage, but it was recently trucked here from the isolated trackage on Aquidneck Island where it last ran about a decade ago.
