The Pennsylvania Railroad's SD45s were acquired to lift trains up the Alleghenies, but when merger expanded their range they could handle the Berkshires as well. Three of them, now working for Conrail, accelerated west through Ashland, MA, with a freight that had just picked up cars at Nevins Yard in Framingham.
