**WATCH IN HIGH QUALITY!** 1/24/09: Although the "Town of Seven Railroads" has lost 3 of them, theres no denying that Palmer, MA is anything short of a hotspot. Here, we see 3 of the 4 railroads that still pass through the center of town. Amtrak #448: EB Lake Shore Limited NECR (New England Central) Light power running north over the diamond across CSX tracks CSX Q423 works the yard at Palmer behind AC6000CW # 652 and ES44AH #941. A recrew combined with signaling and dispatching trouble would lead this train to be stuck at CP-83 for hours before it would be allowed to continue west to Springfield, then over the Berkshire Sub and Washington Hill before reaching its destination at Selkirk, NY. Shot at CP-83 at Palmer, MA on the CSX Boston Sub, the easternmost of the 3 subdivisions that comprise the legendary and historical Boston Line across New England. http://www.photorunby.com
