Appeared in February 2011 Railpace---During winter months, Pam Am's Connecticut trackage sees a spike in traffic, with large amounts of propane moving to the AmeriGas facility on the Canal Line. Due to the increased tonnage, PL-1 often has to leave part of its train in Berlin in order to climb the steep grade to the Plainville Yard. MEC GP40 350 is seen returning to Berlin on December 30, 2010, to retrieve the second half of the previous day's train, which consisted mostly of propane tank cars. |
