Maine Central Railroad

Union Station Bangor - click please

  The Maine Central was formed by the merger and/or acquisition of several other railroads.  As a result the "new" railroad served all of Maine except Aroostook and Piscataquis Counties, and the lines extended through northern New Hampshire to St. Johnbury, Vermont.
  The Maine Central connected to the Bangor and Aroostook at Northern Junction in Hermon very near the Bangor city limits, and MEC trains served Bangors' Union Station.  In Portland the "work yards" were at Rigby in South Portland and Danville which is now a part of Auburn.
  Headquartered in Portland on St. John Street the main terminal was the Union Station in Portland.

IMPORTANT:  Yesterday, Saturday March 31, 2012 the Bangor Humane Society took part in a national program called Mega-Match-a-thon.  The hours were to extend until 8PM and they would open on Sunday as well.  It turns out that all adoptable animals (all kinds) went to a new loving home and they had to close early on Saturday.  Great news.  Keep using www.theanimalrescuesite.com
Thanks.
