Brownville Switcher |
Description: |
3000, 2001 and VB-2 have just coupled to what will soon become a Millinocket bound train. 3000 and 2001 while being of 2 separate histories share the same colors and present one of the closest examples of "matched power" MMA can provide. |

MMA #2 |
Description: |
MMA #2 behind 5026 arrives with VB-1 and 3 other C30-7s in tow. On the right is the old CP yard office and VIA station, the main runs right along the platform, which was in decent shape for 10 or 15 year old pavement. The station looked in good shape too, except a broken window here and there. |

Description: |
MMA 5025 brought MMA #2 in from Montreal, and now leads VB-1 and 4 other C30-7s south to Derby and servi`ing. What I would have given for a chainsaw and a few extra minutes... I had several shots of the move but over exposed them all. This one was most easily salvageable... |
