Taken with a 150-500mm zoom, this was one of my favorite spots for shooting eastbounds ascending the grade. |

Right at MP 143, one mile to the top of the grade, but NOT the summit, which is just east of MP 139. |

The trains looked good coming through this reverse curve, often crawling along at barely 10 mph. |

| Description: |
Since eastbounds were predominantly loads, the trains were heavy, and the power was in Run 8, but those C30-7A's were so quiet, you couldn't really hear 'em until they were on top of you! |

At this point in time, the C30-7A's still "owned" the railroad, with not much else to be seen for variety. |

Although unique to ConRail, the C30-7A's arrived on the property in Aug., 1984, and wouldn't "thin out" until a year after these photos were taken. |

| Description: |
Rt. 8 follows the RR fairly closely between North Becket and Dalton. If you go south on it, it will become Conn. Rt. 8 at the state line, and continuing further you will eventually be paralleling the Naugatuck RR and pass right by Thomaston station. |
