Rigby Yard
Title:  Rigby Yard
Description:  NS 7574 - NS 2771 make a rare appearance at Pan Am's Rigby Yard. Seeing NS power east of the wye in North Chelmsford MA is quite rare (with the exception of a few NS EMD's that have been leased to Pan Am in the past) but in early March of 2015, NS road power visited Rigby on and off for about a week and a half, coming in on EDPO or MOPO.

Title:  MEC 512 Leads L077 Over the Fore River into South Portland
Description:  L077 with MEC 512 leads the (almost) weekly interchange of nine hoppers from FGLK in Brunswick back to Rigby Yard, seen crossing the Fore River from Portland into South Portland.
