Henschel tank engines at the Boothbay Railway Village in Boothbay, Maine
Footage of the German-built Henschel tank engines at the Boothbay Railway Village in Boothbay Maine. The engine shown was built in 1913. These tank engines, in German feldbahnlok (field railway engine), were used in construction such as the autobahn, on industrial sites, and after the war to help clear the rubble. In Maine they are running on 2ft. track. It is one of two engines running at the Village, and the one I would later drive as part of the Village's steam course. Filmed 2002.

Wiscasset, Waterville, & Farmington: Annual Picnic, 8-11-19
Nestled in the woods of Maine, steam hisses through the cylinders of locomotives, powering trains of the 2 foot gauge Wiscasset, Waterville, & Farmington Railway. Operated from 1894 to 1933, scraped in 1937, and now ongoing a rebuilt under the administration of the WW&F Railway Museum since 1989, with 2.6 miles restored with facilities, an operational locomotive original to the museum's predecessor, and rolling stock. The line is full of history, and under the watchful eye of volunteers, provides one of the best looks into the Maine 2-Footers that can currently be offered.
Each year as a celebration of the continued success of the museum, a picnic is held, live music prototypical to the railway's time period, 2 trains available, one powered by WWFRy #9 pulling standard coaches, the second pulled by Monson #3, pulling a train incredibly reminiscent of some of the first trains pulled by the museum. A barbecue was also held at Sheepscot Station along with the display of the only parlor car ever made for the Maine 2 foot gauge railways: Sandy River and Rangeley Lakes Railroad Rangeley.
More information about the history of this extraordinary railroad and it's current museum operations can be found using their website at:
