Last Saturday the Conway Scenic Railroad brought a BIG load down through Crawford Notch (part of the old Maine Central Mountain Division<\/a> – one of the biggest grades east of the Mississippi). The load consisted of\u00a0 a two-piece transformer – one component on a heavy duty depressed center flatcar, the other on a cradle carried by a Schnabel car<\/a>. The load came in from China<\/a> (sigh) to Searsport, ME and made it’s way to Hazens, arriving there on Friday. Friday night CSRR hooked up 2 FP9s and a GP7<\/a> as motive power and attached a couple passenger cars to the tail end for potentates, panjandrums and poobahs.<\/p>\n
