MEC 7518 Leads POED at Kennebunk
Title:  MEC 7518 Leads POED at Kennebunk
Description:  A rare (for this time of the year) daylight POED runs west through Kennebunk, Maine passing the old B&M depot with a proper leader. They were running on M427's time slot. I'd come down taking a gamble of a potential M427 with a CSX SD40-2 leader (which did end up trailing anyway) but a blue C40-8 works just fine too!
