A series of July 5 'practice trips' were operated on the Green Mountain Railroad's Bellows Falls Subdivision in anticipation of Fall Foliage trips later this year on the same schedule. The trips were operated with the GMRC Alco RS-1 405 and seen here passing the rebuilt Bartonsville covered bridge.
Although most only provide freight service, regional railroads have passenger operations; not only executive trains but also charity events and excursions.
