Having about 2 hours to kill in Bangor on Saturday morning I decided to drive down to Carmel to look at the Rt2 overpass over the MEC main line into Bangor. I have an old B&W photo from the 60s & I wanted to see what the place looks like now. As always during these explorations the foliage & the gradual encroachment of things ‘Not Railroad’ makes comparisons difficult and often disappointing. This case was no different, in particular a pine tree in the middle of everything didn’t help. I shot a couple of general ‘lay of the land’ photos and was about to leave when I caught a glimpse of a headlight to the west. There was practically no radio chatter. I think I caught ‘EDMA’ as the symbol, however the closest I’ve found on the web is EDNM. If anyone knows if Guilford runs an EDMA thru Bangor to ‘Keag I’d be interested.
