After heading west across Canada, I caught word of it passing through Kamloops. Next morning my Dad and I figured we'd try our luck up in Blaine. At 9am there it was waiting for us, being inspected at the Peace Arch border crossing. We hung out along the coast just south of downtown for our first location, then drove straight to Clarks Point, near Fairhaven, WA afterwards. Jogged the quarter mile to the lookout and it rolls by not 5 minutes after we get there. Luckiest railfanning we've had in years.
