On August 7, Pan Am Railways 4-car office car special made a trip from Ayer, Massachusetts to Mechanicville, New York, with executives from Norfolk Southern and Pan Am Railways. With FP9As PAR-1 and PAR-2 in charge, a brief downpour has begun as the train heads through Schagticoke, NY.
Although most only provide freight service, regional railroads have passenger operations; not only executive trains but also charity events and excursions.
