Rail cars

Tramway Historic District Eagle Lake Tramway and Locomotives along the Allagash Wilderness Waterway North Maine Woods, Maine Switching gears here on our North Maine Woods trip with our arrival at the "Ghost Trains". I had visited this site about seven years ago when I paddled the Allagash. Some improvements have been made, the most important being that it is now "easily" accessible from the land. And it is well worth the trip into the woods and the hiking involved. These train cars, which once carried logs between Eagle Lake and another lake a good bit further along on the logs trip to the Penobscot River, were abandoned and have decayed to their current state. I will continue to post pictures from this site for the next week or two. I hope you enjoy them. Better yet, I hope you are inspired to visit the location. Be aware, it requires travel on logging roads far from civilization. Be prepared.
