MEC 5958 Leads L054-06 at Jay
Title:  MEC 5958 Leads L054-06 at Jay
Description:  Coming out of the yard limits at Riley's, L054 with MEC 5958 - MEC 307 rounds the bend toward Phipps Canada Rd. in Jay, Maine. Quite sad that all that remains in the yard of one of the MEC's biggest customers are a few storage freight cars and this MOW equipment. One can hope future users of the land can generate new rail business, but as always time will tell.
