Friday, September 17, 2021, Kris and I photographed a southward New England Central freight at State Line Crossing on the boundary between Monson, Massachusetts and Stafford, Connecticut.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Later the same day, I located a print of a black & white negative of a southward Central Vermont Railway freight at the same location exposed c1984.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since I located the black & white photo after<\/em> making the contemporary view, the modern photos do not represent an effort to recreat the earlier image. Instead they show how my views of trains at this location have evolved over the last 37 years, and how the trees have grown!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
