Welcome to Southern Maine Rail Pics

Leeds Junction

A major branch takes a left at Leeds Jct to go to Riley's Mill at Jay and Rumford, while the main line, which is the old Maine Central Back Road, continues to Waterville Bangor and Mattawamkeag. When I come here I usually park near the old line shack at 57 Greene Rd., Wales, ME 04280, 44.206294, -70.079636.
