Red Barns

Normally when you hear "red barn" you think of something where cows are milked and hay is stored.  In the railfan world that would be the CP's cowled SD40-2's or SD40F's.  I had a chance encounter with one about 10 years ago near Montreal and thought that was a big deal.  Now that CMQ has acquired a few, they suddenly show up more often.  Last week at Millinocket, ME and yesterday west of Lac Meganic, QC.  I think I have another "bad penny" locomotive around.  Anyway, here is the Flickr album I created of them and I assume it will see some additions down the road...

Welcome to HAPT's Railfan Adventures


The Hebron Any Power Team is actually just a bunch of fun-loving rail enthusiasts who enjoy photographing and chasing all things railroad with friends. This bunch of guys cover a lot of ground for a group based way up "nawth" in Maine. We also have friends scattered around the country who contribute well to our hobby. In fact, our name is derived from our actual friends in the Worcester Foreign Power Team, except that Hebron hasn't seen a train since the 1950's so we'll settle for "any power".

Welcome and enjoy the eclectic collections of the contributors. Maine idealizes "life in the slow lane" so we present this blog as an effort to share our less time sensitive findings and to add to our hobby.
