Detour train  Contributor's Pick!       
There had been a disruption on the B&M Connecticut River line, and trains were detouring over the D&H from Montreal via Mechanicville and E Deerfiled. One of the detour trains rolls through Mechanicville en route to Mass. The consist has a couple of unrebuilt RS 18s too.
