The
Lincoln County News reports
that the LCN and the Skidompha Public Library in Damariscotta have undertaken a project to
digitize the LCN and predecessor newspapers
.
Depending on the dates of the newspapers to be archived, this looks to make period newspaper articles on the original W&Q and WW&F more readily available. I know researching the history of Cape Cod's railroads has become much easier with the availability of digital archives for several old Cape papers.

This is great news. I have found articles on the W&Q in the old Gardiner papers that are online.
