Would be nice to have seen those early Geeps in person, but I missed out! Born too late. Seems even the fun stuff about the NECR for me has been vanishing bit by bit since G&W took over.
A little trick I use to ID a locomotive model is to type the road name and engine number into a Google search. That usually brings up a handful (at least) of photos from Railroad Pictures Archives.
The CV didn’t really invest in the way of modern locomotives such as SD40-2’s, SD60’s, C-40-8’s. The only locomotives I see in this video are GP-7’s, GP-9’s and Alco’s.
High hoods and NO GRAFFITI! Seems like yesterday. This is great stuff. Thanks for posting!
loving the highhoods
Great video! Loved seeing the switchers.
Thank you!
I worked from Brattleboro south in the NECR days. Great shots!
Very cool! Thank you.
The Green Geeps sported Yellow Zebra stripes at each end.

The good ol CV.
I think those switchers, 1509 & 1511, working the Italy Yard in ST Albans spent their whole life coupled together. (SW900's ????)

How come they don't have any more engines with CV on them? No Fair!
