Maine Central 204 (Fairnont MT-14 L2)

We were so excited and enthusiastic about this project we forgot to take the time to document the process.

 

The 204 is at the end of the line by Rt. 16 on the Wolfeboro line in New Hampshire.

In 2005, MEC 204 got a new motor. This motor was built with an NOS block.

 

At the end of the 2005 season, the car was upgraded with rubber wheels and flange

 brakes. This combination gives the car amazing stopping ability as well as taking the

 curse out of rail joints. Smile for the camera Jesse.
