Grand-ite Opening Special Chase in Woodstock NH on the Granite State Scenic

On June 22nd, 2024, I chased the Grand-ite opening excursion for the Granite State Scenic Railroad. On top of it being a special event, it also marked the last runs of the short-lived return of the Nathan M3 to the Pemi Valley area. Prior to this weekend, it hadn't done anything since the 90's, when it was on #1186. Enjoy the rare chase yall.

Thank you!!! Woodstock is definitely better to chase than Laconia

It's fun to work on too! It was great to finally use that M3 after I rebuilt it
