Quite possibly. Happens from time to time actually. Perfection is just a dream to most but a few lucky ones are born with it! Some were stored up in the yard at Old Town as well.

Saw something similar myself, likely that was the last revenue run. 326 took some tie cars and chip gons for Keag to Old Town a few days ago, so anything they are bringing back to NMJ is going to be whatever they had left to grab.

All those FBOX cars yesterday? 21 for Rumford, 19 for Rileys. Looked at wheel report.

On a related note, Rumford is only shipping 10% outbound product by rail.

They played musical GP9's today. WANM 72, 330, 511, 374 recrewing in Carmel. 326 went back to Old Town with more Keag cars. Last run before snow is likely coming up shortly.

I've always seen it written as "WA-R," George, but its the same standard alpha designation as all their train symbols.

WA: Waterville
-R: relief
-1: day yard switcher
-2: Day switcher

So WAR was an "extra" that had to get called in?
