  • Die New Hampshire Northcoast (NHN) ist eine lokale US-Eisenbahngesellschaft in den Bundesstaaten New Hampshire und Maine. Sitz des Unternehmens ist Ossipee (New Hampshire). Mit den jeweils zwei Lokomotiven der Bauarten und GP 38-2 wird die ehemalige 66 km lange Strecke der Boston and Maine Railroad zwischen Ossipee und (Conway Branch) betrieben. Übergabestelle mit der Pan Am Railways ist Dover (New Hampshire). Im August 1985 stellte die Boston & Maine wegen der schlechten Beschaffenheit der Strecke den Verkehr ein. Das Steinbruchunternehmen Boston Sand & Gravel Co. war jedoch auf die Strecke angewiesen um Sand und Kies aus der Grube bei Ossipee abzutransportieren. Aus diesem Grunde gründete sie die New Hampshire Northcoast Co. und nahm am 27. Mai 1986 den Betrieb auf. 1997 ging das Eigentum an der Strecke auf die NHN über. In den Jahren 1994 bis 1998 wurde die Strecke mit Unterstützung durch staatliche Finanzmittel wieder in einen guten Zustand versetzt. Außerdem wurde in Ossipee eine Werkstattgebäude errichtet. Wichtigstes Transportgut sind Sand, Kies und Schotter in Ganzzügen, vor allem nach Boston. Das jährliche Transportaufkommen betrug 1996 7.000 Wagenladungen. (de)
  • The New Hampshire Northcoast Corporation (reporting mark NHN) is a Class III railroad owned by Boston Sand & Gravel and offering freight service in parts of New Hampshire and Massachusetts in the United States. The company owns 43 miles (69 km) of the former Boston and Maine Corporation's Conway Branch between Rollinsford and Ossipee, New Hampshire. The railroad's primary traffic is quarried sand. It interchanges cars with CSX in Dover, New Hampshire; the cars are then taken to the Boston Sand & Gravel plant in Charlestown, Massachusetts. Other than the Boston gravel train, NHN also serves its own satellite gravel facility in Rochester, New Hampshire, as well as at the same location and a few other freight customers. The company was founded in 1986 when the abandoned tracks were purchased. It has been proposed that the tracks be upgraded for passenger service between Boston and North Conway, New Hampshire. NHN runs an average of two trains approximately five days a week: one southbound, and one northbound. The trains generally arrive at the pit in Ossipee around 11:00 AM and depart for the CSX interchange around 2:00 PM. "Shuttle" trains are run as needed to bring sand and gravel to the facility in Rochester. Once the train arrives in Dover, it assumes the CSX symbol DOBO (Dover to Boston) for the run to Boston. It returns as BODO (Boston to Dover) in the early morning. Until recently when they were replaced with a pair of EMD GP38-2s, the trains ran with several EMD GP9s. (en)
