First train in 6 years from Colonial Beverage - Bay Colony Railroad

In the Spring of 2016 the last boxcar shipments to Colonial Beverage in North Dartmouth, MA occurred. The siding was then used for storage although that ended after a couple years. Now in July of 2022 a surprise boxcar load showed up for the customer but unfortunately I was not there to document it's arrival. As a result I set out to photograph it's departure and was able to catch the first boxcar in 6 years to depart Colonial Beverage (empty). Despite this being the first car in sometime it is believed this is a "one and done" move, at least at this time.  This video shows the siding as well as the BCLR operations to move the car.

Also, just noticed the spelling mistakes in the videos. It is suppose to read "spring" and "customer" in the first caption.
