Perfect day to go down to Brunswick junction & watch the RB-3 train turn around on the Wye, become the BR-4 train, & head back to Rockland. There's a new car from the New Jersey based parent company, Morristown & Erie in the consist. I think it's too modern, & looks silly on there, but you be the judge.
My father took this footage last week down in the yard at Salmon Falls outside Calais, Maine, & I made it into a mini-movie for everyone to check out. The crew went to lunch after re-spotting the loco. After lunch, they set out for the Woodland paper mill. Comments are welcome. Please let him know how he did by leaving a comment. I hope everyone enjoys this. Thanks for watching!

UP 3985 runby. Meet the flagship of Union Pacific. These were used during WWII to move vast amounts of freight across North America until The big diesels took over for good. 3985 is one of the largest steam powered locomotives still in operation, & primarily used as passenger excursion service, & public relations/corporate tours across the land. Watch in high quality for best results.
