Rail-fan Pictures in Falmouth
The place that PanAm refers to as Falmouth or CPF192 isn't actually in the town of Falmouth, but is at the east end of a siding that is near the town line. Hey, it was good enough for them. It's at 1383-1425 Riverside St Portland, ME 04103 43.715476, -70.302745. Some of these pictures are there and some are actually in Falmouth.
Woodville road doesn't have any good parking, but it is double track, a long siding from Field Rd to Royal Junction, and an uphill grade for eastbound trains. It's at mp 188, 43°45'45.2"N 70°15'55.2"W. Muirfield Rd is a private way but one or two cars is not usually a problem if they mind the speed limit and keep the noise down.
