MEC 313, B&M 330, and the Gasholder Building in ConcordTwo locomotives sighted in Concord NH is hardly a usual sight. No freight was behind the Picture Taker either. B&M 330 was set off in front of the Yard Tower for the New England Southern (2.0) Crew to borrow. 313 was the power for the Nashua Crews.
The NA-2 Crew went north with their train late Wednesday night (12/9) from Manchester. They left the freight, south of the River Road Crossing in Bow, and went north to Concord with the two engines. The NA-1 Crew on 12/10 would go south, light, to Bow, and take the freight north and service their clients along the way. The NA-2 Crew would head south with 313 that evening.
The NEGS Crew took 330 north to Tilton in the overnight hours of 12/10 into 12/11 to swap out two tank cars at 3M, an empty for a loaded, then the NEGS Crew would head south on Sunday 12/13 from Tilton to Concord with 330 & two empty tank cars for the PAR Nashua Crews to pick up. By Monday 12/14.. 330 and the empties were gone.
The Gasholder Building stands tall to the left of 313. A movement is underway to save the Gasholder from a potential date with the wrecking ball. Google it, if you want to lend your support... Please... The Gasholder is reported to be the only building of its kind left in the USA, completely intact of its contents..
2020 has been a very interesting year on "These NH Rails"!
