Welcome, follow along with George Dutka in his journal which documents the additions and future thoughts for the HO scale White River Division model railroad and to his continuing historical New England railroad research. The White River Division is now in its 17th modeler's season. The "modeler's season" runs from November to April each year. Inspiration comes from the Boston and Maine, Rutland and Central Vermont Railway during the 1950's with additional posts by Don Janes and Peter Mumby.

CN RS-18's - St. Albans
CN RS's at St. Albans undated sent to me by John Hajnosz.
John Hajnosz asked me a question around the time the announcement for the Rapido RS's happened...did they come down to St. Albans at any point. I could not remember seeing a photo of any there but thought they would have in CN power mixes. Sure enough a few months later John found a view of two at St. A...George Dutka
My experience railfanning St Albans, WRJ, and the upper Connecticut River in the late 1960s was that a full cross section of both CN and CP units came in at both St A and WRJ. I remember the CLC H16-44s from CN and FP7s, FA-1s, and RSs on CPm which had a daily trackage rights freight from St J to WRJ.
