Happy 250th to the Red, White, and Blue !

This was taken on Father's Day with the East Deerfield to Ayer train rolling through Shirley in the afternoon, with quite the four engine lineup from Berkshire & Eastern.

BERX 5946e (B40-8) America 250th !
BERX 7976e (C40-8W) Veteran's & Service Members tribute
BERX 7879e (C40-8W) G&W Heritage Paint
BERX 7635w (C40-8) Pan Am Paint

The Crew would take their entire train east of the wye, and back it in to the yard.

Even seeing clean Pan Am paint on the BERX GEs or the EMD/GMD's left on CSX, has become uncommon sights.

Great job B&E, this was impressive!
