I was not able to advance to more photos but the three photos that I did see brought back memories to me as well. I rode the trip to Amherst in 1954, I still have my ticket stub from this which was my very first fantrip. I also rode behind the 467 in 1956 to Amherst but I don't remember whether it was again in the spring or in the fall, I seem to think it was probably in the spring. I also remember 450 on the New London - Palmer wayfreight. The photo of the 450 might have been on its last trip on a rainy Saturday in early April, 1957. I drove over to New London and up to Norwich where I saw this job steam its last miles south to New London. Two days later the very last Central Vermont steam locomotive no. 451 made its northbound trip from Palmer to Brattleboro to finally wrap up all Central Vermont steam locomotive operations. Yes I know a CN 4-8-4 ran from Montreal to White River Junction on extra sections of the Washingtonian/Montrealer but I would have to hunt for the details and the dates. I remember the end of 1956 and early months of 1957 very well, combined lots of ski trips and train chasing trips during these months. Thank you for posting these, I hope I can find a way to view the rest of these photos.
