    Lucas posts a video AND there is footage of Hardy Pond in it! Nice.

    I love those green locomotives and the snow video of the train and the view! Like 👍
    I also record videos of trains but in Ohio. 👍

    Excellent video. Do 909 and 907 adhere to a schedule of sorts?

      As writing only 909 does. Since I shot this video they reworked 909 from the Brownville jct to Oakfield road job to the Mattawamkeag to Brownville jct turn which services the csx interchange. They also occasionally run to Bancroft depending on where trains 120/121 drop cars. 907 and 908 run only as extras currently. Since CP dropped the ball with the container contract in 2023, they have only used them as needed. There is supposed to be another major contract coming in the spring, but cpkc has failed to fix the issues which have sunk the previous ones so it probably won’t last.
      As for 909 they are on at 0700 or 0900 either at Brownville jct or Mattawamkeag depending on what there is for work. If the power is at keag, they will report there.
      Pretty much all trains on NBSR,MNR, and EMR report at 7, 9, noon, 2, or 5 pm.

      That’s awesome info thank you. Does the 901 run as a BVJ - Oakfield turn, and 910 BVJ - Millinocket turn?

      @@floridarailfanMNR 901 acts as a Oakfield-Millinocket turn, which that might have changed. They were redoing rail from Oakfield to Squapan over the summer to get speeds up, so one crew could do a Squapan to Millinocket turn instead of a two sided road job. Normally they run Monday-Friday, sometimes Sunday depending on if the MNR power is being serviced at Millinocket. 910 is more sporadic and they run as a bvj to Millinocket turn. They were 6 days a week, but with MNR so short on power they pretty much just run whenever MNR can bring cars down. Typically they meet 901 right at Millinocket and swap trains.

    Looks like the Illinois Terminal at a quick glance.

      Thanks for watching! And yes it does, as did the original variation of the scheme that was used on the standard cab EMD's.
