I know other railroad museums have had some sucess competing in these sort of ventures. Basically, organizations who get the most votes have a shot at grants.

Intit is sponsoring this one. Please help the WW&F by voting for us at:
http://lovealocalbusiness.intuit.com/bu ... l_conf_fan

To vote, enter a username, email address, and comment about the WW&F on the above web page and press Vote. (If you have never been, feel free to make up a comment that's nice.)

As of a couple of hours ago, the WW&F was fifth in the ranking with 48 votes. C'mon, gang, let's help this great museum make it. It only takes a minute....you're reading this message, so I know you have the time to do it!

Even if you've never visited the WW&F, you've seen Stephen Hussar's wonderful images over the years, and you know what the WW&F's all about.

Well, I voted for them. Seriously, this is one of our best museums we're talking about!

The best thing is to type in the location: "Alna, ME"
That will point you to the museum regardless of any difference in spelling. I think it offers you two choices for the same museum. Please use the one with the most votes. Thanks!

I voted! One of the most authentic and historically important museums in Maine, in New England. Everything is done correctly and so you are carried back 70 years with the turn of a wheel. When the balsam fir is in the air, there is no better experience, anywhere.

I cast my vote, looks like WW&F is now third in ranking. Lets keep it going, we need more votes. While your at it, drop in at the WW&F web site and make a donation, I did that also, real easy and painless with PayPal.

If a picture is worth a thousand words, then 96 WW&F photos must be worth your vote...
Thank you for your support of Wiscasset, Waterville, and Farmington Railway Museum,
