An 80 mile EDPO chase -- Royalston MA to Haverhill MA -- November 6, 2011

GREAT video, it was really nice to see a train covering that much of a distance (in daylight) without stopping anywhere for any of the myriad of reasons PAR trains tend to almost always be stopped for these days. Now wouldn't it be nice if Pan Am ran ALL of their trains this way? It paints a nice picture of the "what could and should be" way of running this railroad. Favorited by me for sure, nicely done.

@MainlineProductions1 Thanks! nope, I missed POED. Had to fly home anyway.....went a little further than I had anticipated.

Very nice chase! I recently chased CSX B732 from Framingham MA-Walpole MA but thats only like 20 miles, nothing compared to your chase! I really like your shot at 3:03! Where were you standing by the way when you took that video in Fitchburg MA?

@Tcostello105 Thanks! The Fitchburg shots were from the top of the commuter rail parking garage.
