Album Info:Shawn Melvin & I caught up (well met and almost passed) SJWA (St.John to Waterville) at Lincoln, Maine. From there we headed to check upon the MMA in Millinocket and Brownville. We met up with SJWA again at Orono and followed it towards Northern Maine Junction. Here are a few selcted perspectives.... Unlike my mid-atlantic RR ramblings there was plenty of time to get ahead of this train. /DL
