A late F16 recrewed by the FS15 crew is seen heading south by the bog at MP42 on the Bangor Sub in Hudson. The trio of GP20C-ECOs have this long train of ST haulage well in hand as they pull hard around the curve and over the hill here (whoever designed the B&A made zero efforts to avoid hills).
With a respectable 101 cars and 10k tons in tow, F16 glides into Milo along the Sebec River, with a pair of GP38-2s, a SD40-2 and GP20ECO doing the honors. Lately the ST haulage traffic has been building over the weekends as we don't run it south until Monday night, so the southbound F16 tends to be pretty big Monday and Tuesday, often not leaving south until well into the day, such as this day.
F16, with the FS15 crew, drifts downgrade alongside the Sebec River into Milo, the bright red of the three GP20ECOs popping nicely among the remaining foliage of the season. I haven't really had a chance to shoot any of the GP20s yet, so when I found out that F16 had died at Brownville Junction this morning, I elected to chase that south rather than chase 251 west, matching up with a couple friends in the process.
Just messing around, not sure if the wonky angle is dynamic or just a gimmick ? The plane could be sharper though lol !

The Hellenic Air Force were rehearsing for an air show on "Oxi day" (= No-day, ΕπÎτειος του Όχι), commemorating Greece's refusal to accept the ultimatum given by fascist Italy in 1940 during World War II.
Oxi day is commemorated on 28 October.
There were 4,600 F-16 aircrafts built since 1976. Although no longer purchased by the United States Air Force (USAF), improved versions are being built for export. As of 2025, it is the world's most common fixed-wing aircraft in military service, with 2,084 F-16s operational.
