A tourist railroad out of Hyannis Massachusetts. I had been there five times.
Runs to the Cape Cod Canal. I took photos near and in Sandwich Massachusetts.

They were nice units in their Great Northern inspired colors.
Sold to a Maryland shortline years later.
Amtrak also ran on the Cape Cod route. Chicken may be photoshopped.
Some nice units painted in different colors throughout the years.
Scenic route.
Cranberry colors.
At Hyannis Massachusetts.
Hyannis yard.
At Buzzards Bay Massachusetts next to the Cape Cod Railroad Bridge.

More internet photos of the station.
Was the last stop of a branch line from the main line to Provincetown Massachusetts.
Had service to Boston and New York City.
Service long gone but station remains. 1910 restored wood sided caboose keeps company with the station.
