- New Hampshire Northcoast Railroad ex-Pennsy GP9's haul a loaded stone (gravel) train from Ossipee Aggregates to Dover, NH. 09/09/1992. This video starts in the NHN yard in Ossipee, NH and ends at Rochester, NH. See the other parts on our site. Video by Craig Sturgeon. If you like our stuff, Please comment and/or subscribe!
Things were a lot cooler back then.
My grandparents lived in Wakefield when I was growing up and we would go chasing the train through town in the early 1990s (I would have been 9-10 years old when this video was taken). I actually went up on July 4 to take pictures of some of these crossings as a gift for them. Unfortunately, they were not running on July 4 (it didn't occur to me that they would not run on the holiday until I was already up there, but I had no other opportunity since I was visiting from Maryland.

great horn! Love the sound of these old EMDs!
For any NHN fans out there Adrian & Blissfield RR here in Michigan has Ex NHN 1755, 1758, 1759, & 1760 working in SE Michigan. All are still working.
58 and 60 are repainted and working the JAIL line, 59 just returned to running condition this year, 55 is in the shop whether it will run again or not is still undetermined.
Once in a rare while I’d see this train go through Wakefield… Massachusetts!
well for our number 100 upload we have Central Vermont GP-9's working the Conrail Palmer interchange and should be putting it on soon
I think its in Milton....been a while since ive chased, you can see it right from Rt.16, its an awesome chase but they haul ass youve got to stay right on it. Craig
There is actually an additional, abandoned crossing before the first one shown in the video. If you went a little ways further on Route 16, there is a road called "Deer Ridge Road" in Wakefield. Follow that residential road for a mile or two through the woods and you'll run into the train tracks.
The crossing by the dam is along Route 16, I think on the southern tip of Wakefield or possibly the town just south of it. The tracks/river run alongside an Irving gas station, so just look for that.
Cool, This train goes by a job site I'm working at in Rochester. Where is that location with the small dam and railroad bridge? thats pretty nice! I should go video the NHN. I don't see to much rail traffic in New Hampshire.
@kmothersil no I believe they've been replaced by 40s
