NA-1 502 & Coal Train Power by Ferry Road in BowBetween Ferry Road and River Road, the NA-1 Crew got a significant power upgrade, as they tied onto the coal train power, and moved everything to River Road. There was a total of 15000 hp, and 20 axles to move 21 loaded Ciment Quebec cars, briefly.. The coal train power would be set off onto the Perini Siding, and the NA-1 Crew finished their work at Ciment Quebec. The NA-2 Crew took the ECT south later that evening.
The 502 and Ciment Quebec cars were left in Concord this past weekend, north of the coal train power, which was left on the main this past weekend as well. Here, the NA-1 Crew was tying onto the coal train power.
Power included:
MEC 502 - GP40-2L(w)
MEC 7875 - C40-8W
MEC 7635 - C40-8 (Pan Am Blue)
MEC 5946 - B40-8 (Very Clean Pan Am Blue)
Taken in the rain, and worth getting soaked, as this was hardly an everyday occurrence on "These NH Rails".
