SAPI-3 w/Four GP9
Title:  SAPI-3 w/Four GP9
Description:  Wow...as if the normal two highhoods wasn't enough, today's train has four coming into Waterville from Hinckley. This is due to a fuel pump problem on the original two units (third & fourth here). Rescue units came from WA-1.

WA-1 w/ST 62
Title:  WA-1 w/ST 62
Description:  These two units are headed a short distance further to rescue a stranded SAPI-3, which also has a pair of high hood GP9 that broke down. Decided to allow the power lines (which I always try to avoid!) in favor of the foreground color!

SAPI-3 w/Four GP9
Title:  SAPI-3 w/Four GP9
Description:  First, the power didn't run right & the train broke down, then two more units were sent to the rescue. All & all, the short trip from Sappi's paper mill in Hinckley to PanAm's yard in Waterville will end up taking 5 hours today!

SAPI-3 w/Four GP9
Title:  SAPI-3 w/Four GP9
Description:  Normally, 5MPH track would make for a splendid "chase"....but this is one of only a handful of open spots to observe the daily train from the Sappi paper mill.

Title:  SAPI-3 w/ST 54
