Something new on the Bellows Falls diamond

The old diamond at Bellows Falls, Vermont (there were once multiple diamonds here) has seen lots of different motive power over the years, with trains of the Rutland, Boston & Maine, Central Vermont and all their predecessors and successors. But if the old ball signal tender were to come back today and see this, I'll bet he'd get a shock..
