Going back a little bit for this post, filling in some of the gaps I didn’t manage to get out on the site. This was a quick trip I took one morning to catch Providence & Worcester train NR-2 heading south through Groton, CT with some special power in the consist. Yep, as you can tell by the title, two of the former BNSF B40-8W widecab units made their way south along the Thames River. They were wearing their unique PW patch job paint. The third unit is already in PW paint – I still have yet to have that one cross my lens…
Not much else to say on this one, really. Only was able to take a quick trip out and get the train at the USS Nautilus/Goss Cove and again in Fairview yard. My schedule commanded that I be back at the office after that, so I wasn’t able to catch them out on Amtrak’s Northeast Corridor. Oh, well…can’t win ’em all. Anyways, here’s the shots from that morning, which by the way was April 4th.

One thought on “Pumpkins along the Thames”
Tom:
Great shots. I was not aware of the purchase of the BNSF B40’s. Maybe I should have held on to my 750 shares of PWX which I recently sold for about 80% profit. Thanks for
the info. If you are going to respond, please do so to joefmcd@hotmail.com.
As always, thanks.
