Train 92 |
Description: |
From an old Post Card, here is Maine Central train 96 at the platform in Winn, Maine C1904. The locomotive MEC #60, origionally #25 prior to 1900 is a 4-4-0 from Rhode Island Works builders #1550. BLT April 1885, rebuilt in 1910, and scrapped in 1924. MEC Class E, Cyl: 17x24 with 62 inch drivers. The box car behind the locomotive looks to be MEC 5291 although the first digit of the number may be hidden behind the running lamp. According to the October 10th 1904 time table Train 96, which originated at Mattawamkeag at 4:10 PM, was due to depart this platform at 4:15 with an 6:20 PM arrival at Bangor. Connecting train would depart Bangor at 8PM with an eventual arrival in Portland at 1:05 AM and Boston at 5:57 AM. If you decide to go I suggest a sleeper out of Bangor. /DL |
