I had a phone conversation yesterday with a friend who lives in Medfield, MA. The guy knows that I love trains, and as we wound around to that subject he told me that there is (or, until fairly recently, was) an abandoned diesel locomotive sitting on the embargoed CSX Bay Colony line between Medfield and Millis. He said it is located in a spot near the town line, and that the last time he saw it it had been quite thoroughly vandalized. He can't fathom why it is there, and having not known of its existence I couldn't give him an answer.
Does anyone know if the engine is still parked at that spot? How come the railroad simply parked it and left it?
