A few weeks ago, I posted comparative views of southward trains at the South Monson crossing between Route 32 and the former Central Vermont Railway, now New England Central. See: http://briansolomon.com/trackingthelight/2022/01/25/south-monson-1983-2018/
One view dated from 1983, the other from 2018.
This snow photo was exposed from the same vantage point exactly nine years ago today—February 10, 2013.

For comparison, I’ve included scaled versions of the other South Monson photos.
I suppose you could call call these ‘Then, then, and When.’
