A Rare Visit to Plainville |
Description: |
PL-1 was assigned two units this week: MEC 351 and MEC 509, which was making a very rare appearance in Plainville due to the fact that it doesn't have cab signals required for Amtrak's Springfield Line. Today 509 ran solo on a trip west to Terryville and Waterbury after working the Plainville Yard on a very warm June morning. |

Train PL-1 |
Description: |
MEC 509 prepares to run west to Waterbury and Terryville with cars for Albert Bros. Scrap, Firestone, and Clark-Dietrich Steel. 509 is making a very rare appearance to the area as it doesn't have cab signals required to run on Amtrak's Springfield Line. MEC 351 soaks up the morning heat on the run-around track. |
