Of the very few trains I've ever photographed rolling along the waterfront in downtown Bangor this was my first time getting a westbound.

L072-20 returns west to Hermon about sixteen hours late with the L060 (NM-1) crew aboard; with CSXT 9280 - CSXT 8873 in charge of about the typical forty cars from Mattawamkeag.

They will stop at Northern Maine Junction for a brief crew swap with the eastbound which had been waiting patiently for a few hours with MEC lettered blobs for power.

Unfortunately the sun had just about set by the time this train continued west toward Carmel as L071-21, but it was worth it to check a few new spots off of my list.
