This engine once ran between the Randolph waterfront to the V. A. at Togus.

Kennebec Central #4 will be arriving at Sheepscot on Saturday, June 29th for the special The Road to Togus Remembered: Civil War Reenactment event. Thanks to Dan Malkowski for the photo of the test fit of the lettering and numbers. The last time the locomotive wore Kennebec Central markings was 1929.

Happy Father's day. You matter. Especially so in today's confusion where men are labeled as not needed and toxic. Have a good day.

Brown tail moth caterpillars are emerging from their nests all around the lower Kennebec region, and are present in many of the trees along the Rail Trail, especially oaks. If you are sensitive to the caterpillar hairs, please be aware!

I haven't had time to walk on the trail. Has anyone else? How's it looking?

A cool mushroom I saw off trail this morning. Notice the dark brown color which I believe comes from tanic acid contained in Hemlock trees.
Hemlock bark used to be harvested to extract the tanic acid used in the leather tanning process.
