Album Info:After catching NMED at Monmouth Charles & I drove down the road a few miles and caught the entire consist arriving at Leeds Jct. The Cressy Road Xing, at the east end of the Jct, gave better light & perspective on the train. Years ago the Farmington Branch went south across the Maine Central Back Road, just a few hundred feet west of this crossing, and on down to join the Lewiston Lower Road at Crowleys Jct. Regular daily north south passenger & freight service between Brunswick & Farmington was in place over that line into the 40s. Today the tracks are long gone between Livermore Falls & Farmington and The Rumford Branch now heads north thru Livermore Falls and on to the paper mill at Rumford. /DL

NMED
Title:  NMED
Description:  If I owned a railroad and had cars spattered with someone elses idea of 'art' I'm not sure I'd worry too much about the appearance of my rolling stock. Sure would be nice to be able to photograph one of these clean with no extra features. /DL
