There ia q prospect that another will be
added to the network of railroads cen.ering
In Bangor, this time a narrow gauge from
Winterport &c Dover. The idea originated
with Mr.. James Mitchell, of Bangor, a we'll
known railroad builder. As ia well known.
the steame.s of the Boston & Bangor line are
barred out of Bangor in the winter months
by ice, and freight and passengers had to be
transported the remainder of the journey in
old times by teams. and in late wears by rail
from BHckspors. Mr.. Mitchell conceived the
idea that a narrow gauge railroad from
Witerport to Bangor wOnld be great con-
venience for the continuance of steamer travel
to bangor, and that such road from Bangor
to Dover, passing through kenduskeag,
Corinth, Charleston and other towns in
the rich farming dstricts'Of central P.nobscot
would open up and enlarge the traffic Of that
region, and be source of profit to the towns
along its route and to the projectors. Acting
ON this idea Mr.. Mitchell preached his plan
to Richardson, Hill 4 Co., bankers, of Boston,
with view to forming plan for the con-
structiOn Of the road, and it is understood
that the firm and others interested now have
the matter under consideration.
Mr.. Mitchell estimates that the road,
which would not exceed 80 miles in length,
could be built and equipped for 5000 mile,
or at total cost Of $500, 900, u low figure.
The gauge would be feet. The running
expenses would be small, it is thought. Mr.
Mitchell is now in Chicago, having recently
been in Wisconsin on railroad business.
He will be joined in Chiacgo by Mr.. Thomas
Temple, = prominent railroad man of Fred
ericton, n. B.
