Excellent, honorable mention brush clearing.

Thanks for the photo comment! The Tree / brush clearing completed this past winter by Northern Tree Services really has opened up the Falmouth Secondary Rail Line sight lines for the train crews. The Dinner / Scenic trains also will get much better scenic views of the areas this summer as well.

Nice photo. So, who is paying for all this massive brush clearing effort? I'm guessing it's not the railroad?

MassDOT owns all the Cape Rail infrastructure except for the Otis industrial track and has done all of the tree / brush clearing as part of regular MOW maintenance which has been long overdue.
