Ted Miles, WW&F Member
The new engine house is a replica of the original W&Q/WW&F Wiscasset engine house so the window spacing matches the 1894 version. Harry once explained that the window spacing allowed for a diagonal wind brace timber to be built into the wall fairly close to the center. That's why there was no 4th window and there is a wide space between the second and third window.
