The Massachusetts Coastal Railroad's Energy Train On Friday March 14th, 2014

Photographed here is the MC 2010 running as a reverse engine past the historical railroad station located within West Barnstable, Massachusetts on the Cape Main Line. There were approximately four 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) GP50 numbered 2010, with a build date of September of 1980. Moreover, it was originally numbered 5098 for the Chicago and Northwestern Railroad (i.e., CNW), 5541 for the Union Pacific Railroad (i.e., UP), and 2948 for the First Union Railroad (i.e., FURX), before it was eventually acquired by the Massachusetts Coastal Railroad sometime during the Fall of 2010.
