Long haul |
Description: |
Most of the Sperry cars are old interurbans. Despite the bright yellow paint that gives away their ownership, seeing one roll down the tracks like this gives a glimpse into what the passenger service of the 1920s might have looked like. |

SRS 131 |
Description: |
I got word that Wheeling 221 and 237 were almost back to back out of Brewster, and with the sun now setting, and nothing much happening on CSX, I was thinking about heading back to Spencer for at least 237 before calling it a day. But, thats when I heard something pop up on the scanner that immediately changed the outcome of the afternoon. "SRS 131" was calling signals on the Big 4. Knowing that was a Sperry Car, I made a dart for New London. Sure enough, I was right, and I decided to finish my day off with it. W004, as it was symboled, splits the trilights at New London. |
