Does anyone remember the year that Messrs. Mellon and Fink took the Businees train down to Hyannis? Guilford and Amtrak were fighting about the Downeaster at the time and Amtrak "delayed" the special train deliberatly at Attleboro as a casual "protest".
I remember visiting the Hyannis yard with the gleaming trainset surrounded by Guilford train protectors (read guards) I took some pictures or video and have been looking for them now,....but no luck yet/
I remember John Pimental of Bay Colony RR being in charge of the layover at the yard. He was running around to make sure everything was secure and OK. I know the 500 series engines (515 and 516 ?) were fairly new to Guilford at the time.
Anyone else remember this occasion?
