Plymouth & Lincoln Railroad (HOBO, Winnipesaukee Scenic)

I have question about the passenger station that was in Lincoln, I know the station stood in what is now the parking lot of the "Lincoln Center North" shopping plaza and as I understand it only the track and associated railroad structures owned by the mill were removed, stopping at the property line to the B&M railroad behind Linwood Plaza. So, was the station and track nearest the station property of the mill?

Looks like 70-80 miles round trip. 8.5 hours including whatever stop off. So 15mph? Implies >$1.36/mile, which seems reasonable for a custom charter trip.

It's a great experience, same ride the MBRE chartered in 2022. Much of it is rare mileage from north of the Common Man Inn, in Plymouth to the Jack-O-Lantern on the Woodstock / Thornton line. Overall there is lots of scenery, quite a few bridges to cross over.. The 2022 edition had 3 non-powered Budd RDC's.. former B&M 6105, 6921, and former Reading 9151, and the former CN, B&A Pullman Car #103.. That's the one with the Presidential Class seating with the ice cold AC!

The pullman car is getting renovated, so that will look interesting with the consist. It also looks like they're selling less tickets so it could just be two rdcs as have been in previous years before the lochmere trip

With the new owners, any chance we get to see the 2 MEC cars restored to service?

A long day it was. Dreary but not cold.

Does anyone have the lineage of the Geep 1921 in Lincoln?

Built 8/57 as NP 336. Went to BN, the MBTA, then Hobo.

Doubleheaded out of lincoln today. 105 leading 1012 trailing. Looks like the cut off 105 in woodstock

We hear the 105 was brought to Meredith to be used as their main power.

It was. I'm not sure what the deal is with 958, 1186, or 1921. All are drained and there is no backup in lincoln

1590 arrived at Lincoln earlier tonight

Lineage of the 1921:

1921 GP9 EMD BN: 22739 Blt: 8/57 FN: 5505-20 Acquired: 11/93 (MBTA)
Ex-BN 1921, NP 336
Notes: Bought via Chrome Crankshaft (d). Repainted 1991 to commemorative Boston & Maine maroon/gold paint
scheme. ACSES installed 3/00 Readville, Ma. Out of service by 10/07/04. Offered for sale 9/05 via Fast Track Railroad
Consultants (Lincoln, N.H.) Sold 11/05 to James Gagliardi (p). Set out for interchange 6/30/06. Departed 7/06/06
on GRS SALO-5. Sent to Hobo RR (Lincoln, N.H.) for overhaul. Released 3/06 as Hobo 1921. Now PPLX 1921.

1921 was labeled for The Pride of Charlestown, Billy "Zeke" Marsden. We heard the last known run of 1921 was a light engine move somewhere around September 2019. 1921 went from being stored in Meredith, back to Lincoln where it has been stored more or less, ever since.

Has the railroad ever used 1921 in revenue service?
