The Depot At Last!
Title:  The Depot At Last!
Description:  I've long wanted to photograph the Roseport depot, having seen it in other railfan's photographs. At last, late on a Saturday afternoon that had a storm looming up from the southwest (visible in the upper right corner), I finally got my own shot of the depot. The parked Uncle Pete units was a nice touch.
