An hour and a half after switching the Canaan yards, Housatonic Railroad NX-13 comes around a bend along the Housatonic River on approach to the first River Road crossing in West Cornwall, with HRRC EMD GP35 #3604 and its fouled Conrail-tuned Leslie RS3L air horn leading and GP35s #3601 and #3602 trailing. #3602, which has recently been assigned to NX-10 south of New Milford, but had been taken to Canaan to be serviced and fueled, is now deadheading back to New Milford to take over south-of-New Milford operations from GP35M #3600. Due to track condition, which led to multiple minor derailments in the last few years, a 10MPH speed restriction is now in place south of Canaan, Connecticut, the previous 25MPH limit, which the crews would often push to 30MPH or more, was unsafe. |

NX-13 Switching Kimberly-Clark |
| Description: |
After shoving their short train up the nearly 5% grade leading into the Kimberly-Clark paper mill, the crew of NX-13 has flagged the Pickett District Road crossing and begins to push their train into the mill facility. Once they have dropped their cars at the paper mill, NX-13 will collect several empties from the nearby yard along the Berkshire Line and begin their return north to Canaan. |
