I like vague titles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

My Irish friends might wonder, since Irish Rail class 201 number 204 in unlikely to have ever reached Enfield, County Meath on the Sligo Line\u2014although the older C-Class diesel with the same number probably did pass that point (before my time).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Amtrak F40PH-2 204 almost certainly passed Enfield, Connecticut on the former New Haven Railroad\u2019s Springfield-New Haven Line, a route now described as the \u2018Hartford Line\u2019. While I have various photos in the 1980s of the 200-series F40PH-2s, it is unlikely that I have a photo of 204 at Enfield.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Then there\u2019s an extremely remote possibility that I have a photo in my collection of a Boston & Albany 4-4-0 with that number passing Enfield, Massachusetts on the Athol Branch. I\u2019ll have to review my B&A roster to confirm they actually had a locomotive with that number and if it ever ran up the branch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How about Guilford Rail System\u2019s high-hood GP35 204 working the Maine Central with MABA at Enfield, Maine?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Regular Tracking the Light readers might understand my connections to this engine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

(It\u2019s a sister locomotive to former Maine Central 216 that now resides at Conway Scenic where I now work.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Too many ephemeral and tenuous connections?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Just wait, I could make signaling allusions!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
