I occasionally have the opportunity to make a quick "fly-in" trip to visit a line I've been wanting to see. Currently eyeing a few possibilities for next week, and the talk of Ayer has raised my interest a bit.
Would this be a good spot to get a fair amount of traffic in a relatively short time? How is the scenery in Ayer and relatively close by along the line? Any locals that head out of there that would be worth chasing to get some branchline settings?
I appreciate any and all input. I've generally thought of heading for Portland and up to Waterville to get the Madison and SAPPI jobs, but it sounds like Ayer could be a pretty hot spot at present and a good option for a day trip.
Thank you!
