General Discussion / Re: Kathadin Iron Works RR and the Ray Lumber Co.

« on: September 26, 2016, 02:53:12 PM »

Looking at Google, there is a trail marked "Katahdin Iron Works Trail" which roughly parallels the Pleasant River from near the Iron Works Park off the Iron Works Road, leading down to Brownville Junction near the post office. Does anyone know if this is a relatively new hiking/snow mobile trail, or possibly the old right of way for the supposed narrow gauge Iron Works Railroad? I can find very little mention, and no information regarding such a railroad in any gauge? I'm surprised there hasn't been more interest in this, especially with the Iron Works being a State Park.
