No info with this old print. The date is a very ruff estimate... The scene looks a bit like Whitefield but not from a common angle. In earlier photographs of this locomotive the generator is mounted ahead of the stack, here it looks to be back near the cab. The gondola appears to be MEC 8200 but the origional photo is rather fuzzy and I dont think MEC had any gondolas in this number range... /DL |

MEC 463 |
| Description: |
Seven Miles from Farmington. They sure don't erect mile posts like this any more.... Many of 'em along the main lines are still standing and have been over painted with PAR miles from Mattawamkeag. This reporters mother was just graduating from Farmington 'Normal School' on or about this date. Now did she ever take the Railroad to school?? I suspect probably!? /DL |
