The train consisted of three tank cars, one box car, a streamline passenger car and a lettered caboose. The consist was spotteed on the siding at the Merwinsville Hotel in Gaylordsville. The morning began with classroom instruction and then a hands-on activitiy for firefighters from through out the area. It is in Canaan at this time. New ties and rail are up next to the existing track.
Business seems to be booming for the addition of a second track.
Also, seems as though the New Milford Yard tracks have been upgraded. Rumor has it that the HRRC has picked up a couple of new customers, one north of Canaan and one to the south. Will let you know when we hear more. Looks like a load or 2 of stone has been dumped to fill in the big puddle next to the tracks, opposite the Deli. These have been piled up for a good year now.
