Rolling Large At Bancroft

Eastern Maine Railway Train 908-4 uses the full 25 MPH speed limit on this portion of the Mattawamkeag Sub.

 

Behind the power, 10,000 feet of train stretches west from Bancroft and into the town of Wytopitlock.

 

Bancroft is home to a 7,842 foot passing siding and is home to just 57 residents and not much else.

 

However at one time there was a sawmill here, the spur for which branched off in the foreground and headed north behind me a few hundred feet.
