New England Central 437—White River Junction.

Yesterday, January 1, 2020, I paused at White River Junction, Vermont, a place I first visited to make railroad photographs nearly 35 years ago.

That first visit was a warm sunny summer’s morning. By contrast yesterday’s visit was a wintery, cold and gray afternoon with hints of color in the southern sky.

New England Central local was working with GP40-2 437,  a locomotive still wearing Florida East Coast colors.

    Nice photo. I stood on that bridge many times when I used to frequent WRJ in the 1970s, and believed that things had just about hit rock bottom, even though we still had the B&M, the CPR and the Central Vermont. Little did I know . . .
