Is it Ed-a-Ville or is it EEd-a-ville?

Correct pronunciation is "Ee-da-ville". "EDA" was the initials of the founder, Ellis D Atwood.

Edaville was the introduction of many of us in New England to the Maine Two Footers. It wasn't an intro to steam for me, because I lived not far from Boothbay Railway Village, which we visited a couple of times a summer. But I remember the Edaville brochure, it's back page was dedicated to the Christmas lights trains. I so wanted to go for that, but even with family in Massachusetts it was never an option. I got to go twice when it was "classic Edaville", and then once more in 1997 for Fred Richardson's 80th birthday celebration, when the park was open for the day and there were several trips around the bog.
