Boston & Maine Jeep in Buckingham Branch territory |
Description: |
You would not believe the action at Doswell today. BBRR is moving cars with 2 engines and crews plus their track crew is replacing ties in this yard at Doswell. If their service today is any indication of the future, they're gonna need a bigger yard! |

Ahhh, we have a train |
Description: |
#5 has set out the cars. #3 is coupling the last set and almost ready to head out across the diamond. I must have looked at this pic a dozen times before I noticed the spare knuckles carried on the pilot. |

The work is never done |
Description: |
#5 went right to work moving more cars around after #3 pulled out of the yard. I do like the big roads but I've never seen them "hump" like these guys. I think all the hub-bub leading up to the BBRR running the Piedmont Sub is going to turn out to be a bunch of bunk. This is a first class operation! |

CSX 4846 passing BB 3. That's a whole lot of ugly to be in one spot. I guess it'll grow on me with time. I seldom like the new autos when they change styles why should trains be different? |
