Pan Am's Heritage Locomotives

That was mine, I didn't know where his was, so I tried to just fly it up and out of the way quickly.

Dogfight!

I noticed the fantastic audio quality as well. VERY impressive.

Not much for tires on that Hummvee. Must be railroad owned

I have noticed that these two engines seem to be the power of choice for the yard crews in Waterville. They are almost always running.

Better to use them for yard power and free up a pair of GP40s for a road job than the opposite (as much as I like catching the geeps on the road).

Also good to keep them close to the shop for reliability reasons.

I can't help but remember a time that seems like it wasn't very long ago — early 2000s — when they had a pretty decent number of GP7s and GP9s on the roster, and those locos were permitted to stray pretty far from yards and shops. I have a particularly vivid memory of a lone chop-nose GP7 making an early morning run from Rigby to Wells with several cars for Spencer Press. As the crew was doing their switching, the sound of that 567 spooling up could be heard over a mile away. After they finished their work, they took the empties back to Rigby and the sound of that old GP7 in Run 8 carried for MILES. By the time they made it to Kennebunk I could still hear them in Wells.

77 and 52 working at Waterville two days ago.
Thanks to Wayne Johnson for the photo.
Long live the 52 and 77.
