Ford Model T Railcar at the WW&F Railway Museum

This Ford Model T inspection vehicle was built by the Monson Railroad in Monson, Maine. It was loaned out by the Boothbay Railway Village to the WW&F for one of their big open house events in August of 2002. More on the Boothbay Railway Village at http://www.railwayvillage.org/

The Wiscasset, Waterville, and Farmington Railway was a two-foot gauge common carrier railroad that operated in the early part of the 1900's, up until 1933 when the railroad ceased operations. The line ran from Wiscasset in the south, to Albion and Winslow in the north. The Museum is located at the site of the old Sheepscot station, with mainline track running north from Cross Road, on the original roadbed.

They are laying track like there's no tomorrow, and have gone past the next station in Alna Center which has been recreated with a run-around so that they can finally run with the engine in the front both ways. Another fantastic place for the whole family. Filmed in August 2002. More info on the WW&F Railway Museum at http://www.wwfry.org/

Take a look at my generation. There you will find trains, the Finnish army, the beautiful scenery of Finland, folk music, sailing ship Sedov, martial arts, sports, art exhibitions, animals, animation, a lot of Super 8 films and other interesting stuff!

Sorry, that car was not built by the Monson. It's a Sandy River and Rangeley Lakes car that was at Edaville for decades.
