BANGOR MAINE 1910

While looking for the depot, I found a railyard and roundhouse. These probably handled the passenger trains. The depot is properly marked at the foot of Exchange Street. (Note that the bridge in the map is east of today's State Street.)
1955/57 Bangor Quad @ 62,500

I used this photo to verify the location of the depot. The roundhouse was already gone in 1942.
