So what is the story here? A new or potential customer(s)?
Great shot. (All spiffed up and looking like a model railroad diorama. )
Given the propensity of New Englanders to prop up, load up, haul off, and relocate structures I’m surprised it has taken nearly a century to do so.
Dear Santa, On behalf of those who post here, I most humbly request a heritage unit or two for Christmas. Personally I would be thrilled with a Imron Blue Boston & Maine loco. And if the elves have time and inclination, it would be a most joyous occasion to see a golden Maine Central engine pull...
Assume you’ll be leasing hoppers. How many will be leased, and will we see dedicated trains like those of Boston Sand & Gravel?
Oh great, I guess all the locos will be staying yellow and blue and various colors found in the back of the paint locker.
I believe the propane facility is now located adjacent to the Rigby yard in South Portland.
Though looking at a satellite image of the yard and surrounding area I do not see anything resembling a propane facility.
I believe his handle was “rock guy”
A daily drone flyover would be most useful during this rebuild.
Was intermodal mentioned as part of the Hopedale property development?
Very true. And in this case it seems as though the industry understands something that is fundamentally lost to us in this forum ... That is unusual for railroad.net. Although we certainly aren't the "leading edge" in general this place always seems to come up with the answer eventually. ...
Speaking of Eams Street. Apparently the EPA has decided to clean up the mess at Olin {across the street from the cement plant). It will be interesting to see if they make use of rail to haul out the toxic earth. https://www.epa.gov/newsreleases/epa-announces-proposed-plan-begin-clean-olin-chemical-s...

New crossing is certainly photogenic, especially with a long (for the branch) train passing.
Somewhat amusing given the short distance between crossings. Given that the Woburn St crossing is in Woburn and the Industrial St. crossing is in Wilmington I’d venture a guess that signage is courtesy of the Wilmington DPW.
