Just east of "New milepost" 283 is the locale of East Winfield.
East Winfield once had a water tower and feed pipe for the water
the steam engines required. The grade up "Richfield Hill" is a short
distance ahead and the steam engines would work hard and use extra
water as they worked they way towards "Chepachet" and Cedarville Station.
