Took my sister and wife out on Friday morning to visit a butterfly conservatory in Deerfield MA and then talked them into going over to the East Deerfield Yard for a quick peek before lunch. A real hit or miss location, we got lucky and watched Berkshire & Eastern back 4 engines into the yard including a heritage unit (3rd engine). Frontier Railroad Services had a half-dozen pieces of equipment that needed to clear the yard entrance (not shown) before B&E made their move which made the short railfan experience that much better. My sister isn't a railroad buff, but said at the end of the day it was a real highlight. Everybody loves a train.
