    Ken, those videos are great, thanks. The trains look normal size as they approach, then you see the two men on the flat cars and you realize how small 2 foot trains actually are.....:eek:mg: :shade:

    Before I left Maine, I stopped in Portland at the Maine Narrow Gauge RR Museum to ried their excursion train, and shoot their motive power & rolling stock. Everything looked no bigger than the stuff you'd find in amusement parks- it's hard to believe this was actually used in road service. Hats off to the museum (And everybody else in the Pine Tree State who's involved in preserving two-foot history)!

    Thanks for the videos. It was partly because of the book, the Maine Two Footers, that I got into narrow gauge model RRing. :)

    I'd always admired the model railroading works of Hayden & Frary. But when I got my copy of that same book,......
