CROSSING MARYLAND
As dawn breaks, we have finished our quick dip into Pennsylvania and cross Maryland. The lighting and dirty windows kept photos from being sharp and of good color saturaion. We finish this section with our service stop in Cumberland, MD. There were many churches visible from the train as we pass through Cumberland.
