Morning Bongas - a photo on Flickriver

Morning Bongas

            CSX manifest freight Q436 is seen crossing over the diamond at Palmer. This is where the New England Central (former Central Vermont) crosses the CSX Boston Subdivision (former Boston & Albany). Somewhere along the way, someone started calling the common power Gevos "Bongas" and it stuck. There is even a New York Central-themed Bonga sticker on one of the signs in the Steaming Tender parking lot just two hundred or so feet from this spot.
