Dana mentioned it in another thread. The Harrison Branch. I stopped by a few places yesterday and got some pictures. Thanks to Duncan to pointing me in the right direction. Here are a couple of interesting photos I took yesterday.
The first 3 photos are of a small bridge at the end of a private road off the Pond Rd. in Bridgton. I believe it was Macomber Road but don't hold me too it. No date to be seen on the side of the rail I could see. And I didn't want to get wet trying to read the other side.

And this last shot is just interesting. This is next to the campground, headed North towards Harrison. I had a long talk with one of the owners and learned a bit about the little station Duncan posted a picture of on NE Rail. Enjoy.
