Last week I was part of a Conway Scenic crew involved with trackwork on the old Maine Central Mountain Division.
The light was December-dull, and the setting reminded me of trackwork scenes I’d photographed on black & white film back in the 1980s.
Working with my Nikon Z6 in a monochrome-mode, I made these digital images to capture the texture of the event.

It’s been a long time since the White Train passed this way.
At one time, many years ago MBTA’s Franklin Branch was the New York & New England main line, which was then a double track line through Norfolk, Massachusetts.
When Kris Sabbatino and I paid a visit to Norfolk a week ago, Keolis track crews were busily working on the line installing a second main track.
So, I wonder, when will the line be extended west to restore the Inland route via Blackstone, Putnam and Willimantic to New Haven?
