As a follow-up to recent posts on CSX’s Boston Line, I offer this pair of photos of an eastward Intermodal train passing CP64 in East Brookfield, Massachusetts.
I’d photographed this train arriving in Palmer [CSX: EARLY MORNING INTERMODAL—FIVE VIEWS AND THE SPIRIT OF RAVENNA, then zipped up to West Warren to intercept a westbound [CSX West Warren Waterfall- http://briansolomon.com/trackingthelight/2019/07/02/csx-west-warren-waterfall/].
Knowing I had a few minutes while east and westward trains made their meet at CP79 east of Palmer, I explored locations at Warren and West Brookfield. I concluded that summer-time brush along the line made many of my traditional photo locations un-workable.
So, I went over to East Brookfield, where the overhead bridge offered a clean view of the tracks. One photo was exposed using a FujiFilm XT1 the other with a Lumix LX7.
