Viewing Album:  Belfast & Moosehead Lake - The Corn Wreck
 
By:David Larrabee
Dates:4/15/1978 - 4/15/1978
Album Info:Sometime in mud season in the Spring of '78 the BML lost several loads of corn into the Passagassawakeag River near MP B2. The story I heard at the time said the cars had been taken to Belfast by mistake and were actually destined for the grain mill in Unity. /DL

Description:  Back in the days when looking something like this over a close range was not frowned upon. I chatted with various RR track crew at the time. This past summer I met the Chief Engineer for the BML when this happened. He said this was Hulcher's first job. /DL
