Deering Junction still has several warehouses that receive by rail and therefore is a common stop for a local switcher. A common place for rail-fans to watch the switching is found behind Bruno's at 33 Allen Ave., Portland, ME 04103, 43.687205, -70.289921. However if it gets too crowded for Bruno's management you may get moved out so an alternative place is at 45-49 Morrill St., Portland, ME 04103, 43.686911, -70.290726. This is where CPF 194 is.
