Two Feet to Tidewater: The Wiscasset, Waterville & Farnington Railway - By Robert C. Jones and David L. Register

This classic is back in print, bigger and better than before. Maine's only two-foot narrow gauge with oceanfront trackage, the Wiscasset, Waterville & Farmington clung tenaciously to life through financial adversity, disputes with the Maine Central, raging coastal blizzards, and the advent of the automobile. This new expanded edition builds on the impressive history and photographic record that made the original volume so prized. More than 70 never-before-published vintage photographs, detailed equipment specifications and an ephemera section are now included. There is also a detailed section of the dynamic WW&F Railway Museum, which has brought the WW&F back to operational life nearly seven decades after it was abandoned. 408 pages, 8-1/2 x 11" hardbound, 400 black and white photos, index.
