A number of men and women on an excursion train headed north from Wiscasset station (1901 - 1907). The "W. W. & F. RR refers to Wiscasset, Waterville, & Farmington Railway, a narrow gauge railway from 1895 to 1936. The Wiscasset, Waterville and Farmington Railway is a 2 ft narrow gauge railway. The line was operated as a for-profit company from 1895 until 1933 between the Maine towns of Wiscasset, Albion, and Winslow, but was abandoned in 1936. Today, about three miles of the track in the town of Alna has been rebuilt and is operated by the non-profit Wiscasset, Waterville and Farmington Railway Museum as a heritage railroad offering passenger excursion trains and hauling occasional cargo.
