Update on the progress. Still looking for any and all pictures in private collections.
This is quite a project.
Here are the most recent (recent being inconsistently updated to the 1970's-2000's) valuation maps. They will help.
PM me if there are any missing that you are looking for or you want something older.
That's a good suggestion. Colby College has microfilms of the entirety of the "Morning Sentinel". If I decide to do an article, that is what I will do. Unfortunately the quality of newspaper photos are no where near what I would need to discern the details I am looking for. To add insult t...
I am working on a digital recreation of the station in Waterville and am looking for any plans/pictures of it that are not easily available online.

Oh nice!
I emailed them months ago and got no response. I'll try again
Did they make any plans with stations, curve data, pole location, stops etc.?
What would be the best avenue to find detailed maps of interurban lines? In a perfect world, I'd like to find valuation maps of them (that's the amount of detail I'm looking for) but it doesn't appear they weren't created for transit systems. Specifically looking for the companies in Maine (Watervil...
The holes will be plugged while she retains her friction bearings. Don't forget we will be doing a complete (minus the drivers) roller bearing conversion. The journal boxes will only serve a cosmetic purpose after that
