On Sunday November 5, 2006, CSX B40-8 5958 hauls a transformer south through Sherborn on the Framingham Secondary destined for interchange with the Bay Colony at Medfield Junction. BCRR Geep will place its empty covered hoppers (used for hauling roofing shingle granules to the GAF factory at Millis (long closed now)) on a side track and go grab the H&W payload off the interchange track (to the right of the B40 & crew confab). BCRR will drag it to Island Rd in Millis for transloading to a very large truck trailer to get it the final few miles to Bellingham. Must have been a clearance issue preventing the well car from going through Walpole/Franklin to Bellingham via the Milford branch?
