The Massachusetts Coastal Railroad's Energy Train On Friday September 29th, 2012

Photographed here is the MC 2010 clearing the historic railroad station located within West Barnstable, Massachusetts on the Cape Main Line. There were approximately six refuse loads that originated out of the Barnstable - Yarmouth Regional Transfer Station located within South Yarmouth, Massachusetts, all of which were destined for the SEMASS Waste - Energy incinerator at Rochester, Massachusetts. Lastly, the locomotive for today's run was an Electro - Motive Division (i. e., an EMD) GP9U numbered 2007, with a build date of May of 1956. Moreover, it was originally numbered as 1664 for the now defunct Atchison, Topeka, and Santa Fe Railroad (i.e., ATSF), before it was eventually acquired by the Massachusetts Coastal Railroad sometime within February of 2008.
