 Post subject: Rigby roundhouse to fall
PostPosted: Mon Sep 23, 2002 12:45 pm 

The State of Maine has reportedly condemned the remains of the B&M/MEC/Portland Terminal roundhouse at Rigby Yard in S. Portland, ME and it will probably be demolished within the next few weeks. Can anyone provide photos ot it, both historic and recent? I believe there are 14 remaining stalls left.

There's a recent photo (dated today) in NErail photo website (I couldn't get it to link correctly for some reason).

"Best OF Maine Railroads" has a nice aerial shot of the whole thing from 1951 complete with both steam and Diesels. I tried scanning, but it comes in a bitmap, tiff and one other non-.gif format. If .tiff or .bmp is okay, I can post a scanned image (with caption and photo credits). There's one other close ground level shot in that book as well.
