Dunno if it's a freaky Friday sorta thing, but the ED495 of 06-17-2011 got no further east than Ayer, which pavement-wise isn't that far from 495. Didn't get there in time to see it arrive, but did hear it get instructions to yard on 6 and then head back to the Camp to pick up 26 for East Deerfield. After finishing yet another crossword puzzle and seeing a non-Rudolph-hauled 417 head west, I did see NewBlues 602 and 604 pull onto West Wye. The raindrops were getting to be a bit too plentiful, so I started heading home, only to hear a crew-TOM tweaking of plans, with the now-495ED getting authorization West Wye to 2 at 1009.
