A Splendid Saturday in Ayer and Shirley, Massachusetts on May 25th, 2024

In search of 46A, I woke up early in the morning to see if I could catch it. It turned out they didn't leave Mechanicville until that morning, but I was instead greeted by SAED when I arrived.
Later, I chased B101 to Shirley after catching several commuter trains. One of the MBTA train sets had the "Honoring our Veterans" cab car.
After that, and the next pair of commuter trains, what I assume to be FI-3 with SAED's power spun around on the wye.
B100 showed up not too long afterward and backed into Ayer fairly quickly. Unfortunately I got word that 46A tied down in Wachusett as the crew had outlawed, so that meant it was time to pack it in and head home.
Music at the end written by me.

Hello, it is that kid you saw at Ayer a few weeks ago. Caught double car heritage units at Worcester. Just saying it will be up soon.

@@theeasternmassrailfaners9734 heya! Nice meeting you there. What heritage units were they? I was in Palmer today and I caught the Seaboard engine, and there was a P&LE one earlier. Were those the ones?
