On our last evening at Moosehead Lake, Kris and I made a strategic drive to Tarratine, Maine hoping to intercept Canadian Pacific’s westbound freight, #223, at the grade crossing with Route 6.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Within five minutes of our arrival, we could hear a whistle far to the east. Gradually the chug of General Electric diesels grew louder and more pronounced.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kris set up her FujiFilm XT4, while I positioned my Nikon Z6 on my ancient Bogen tripod.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
