Brownville Jct. Overview
Title:  Brownville Jct. Overview
Description:  Brownville was dead, but there was plenty of power sitting there. ICE 6421 is center. A sceond ICE or DME unit (6400?) was coupled back to back with it. To the left is MMA VB-3, further left is an ex.BAR track machine. Way back, you can see the nose of an ex.UP unit, I think one of the GPs leased to NBSR. Behind the GP was 2 SLC F40s, mostly hidden from sight. Also in the yard was atleast one MMA C30-7 in blue/yellow. The yard was full, both "main" tracks by the station were full of chips, pulpwood and CGTX tanks.

Old Military Rd. North
Title:  Old Military Rd. North
Description:  Old Military Rd in Winn, ME. I stopped to take a look at the track work to be done. This puts new ties on the ground over 30 miles south from Keag. I saw a tie train at Old Town and have been told new ties are staged as far south as MP.44! Just for the record, Im not in the gauge, telephoto at its best...
