"Wiscasset, Waterville & Farmington Railway Museum officials showed Wiscasset Newspaper where a piece of rail broke about an hour after being placed Sunday afternoon, on a stretch being built during the nonprofit’s annual fall work weekend. The rail broke, “trapping the work train” that had crossed the new bridge Saturday morning and eight times since, railroad superintendent Jason Lamontagne of Bath said as No. 9 was en route with a flat car carrying a replacement rail. No. 9 was “rescuing” the work train, he said."
the new track broke?
