If you want a candle made by a Yankee, buy a Village Candle candle.

Something I meant to mention in my previous post but forgot:
Village Candle is in the old Spencer Press plant in the Wells Industrial Park. Spencer was a longtime railroad customer. The track into the plant still exists but I don't know if VC has ever used it.

There is new track work going on at the IMT. Crushed stone in place, parallel to the existing track, ties and new rail stacked on site.

New track going where to serve what?
by pnolette
They are adding a second track in the mini-IM.Looks like they are also extending the run around track to the east end of Yard 8.And the road crossing to Merills is getting lights and gates.

Lights and partial gates (no arms) installed at the almost, very west end of Commercial St. Track services the IMT to the east.

Noticed some Yang Ming containers mixed into the normal water shipments heading west on POED this morning. Are these just new containers for the Poland Spring equipment pool or does PAR have a new IM customer?
