INSANE DETOUR on the Green Mountain! SD40 Action and a Busy Day Across the Vermont Rail System

It’s July 17th and I’m heading across Vermont for an action-packed day featuring New England Central detour traffic and trains. After catching RDBD near Rutland and watching the Extra 263 being assembled, I headed to Bellows Falls for WACR DAWJ and GMRC DASW, the latter picking up an NECR SD40 and moving a MASSIVE train to Riverside.

The main event of the day was chasing first a duo, then a trio of NECR SD40s over the Green Mountain and Northern subdivisions. A heavy train made for some great EMD action over the hill.
