All Aboard!

Down at the bottom of the Old Port you can take a trip back in time aboard the Maine Narrow Gauge Railroad. You can ride in antique coach cars pulled by locomotives and take in wonderful views of the harbor. Yet not all is pretty. Seen here is one of a few boxcars and cabooses in a grievous state of disrepair rotting away on a side track.

  3. Oh no! Too bad they can't save this somehow. I love Ocean Spray and their commercials!
