Ex-B&M 44-tonner, still working for the Claremont-Concord RR in NH, in restored original paint. This part of the C-C is the north stub of the former B&M Northern route, which ran between Concord, NH and White River Jct., VT.http://photos.nerail.org/showpic/?photo ... ydate%3A15

Dear god..........I remember that thing being a rusty source of spares (along with a couple ex-Montpelier & Barre 70-tonners) behind the Claremont enginehouse in 1985--20 years ago!!!!! I presume it survived the many junk cleanups and was restored to service after the enginehouse fire a few years ago took out the other 44-tonners out of service. What an utter delight to see her in service!Now if the old gas-electric car body had only survived as well.........
