Milo & Derby (Milo Junction)

Back in the day - the Bangor & Aroostook Railroad

...Maine, once one of the largest rail workshops in the state,
but, sadly, the day came when the trains met their fate;
times are uncertain now, and there's not so much freight,
but back in the day, trains more than pulled their weight.

South Portland's Rigby yards, and Derby's were king,
twenty-four hours a day you could hear those hammers ring,
the shops are much smaller now, and Milo is too,
but if you get the chance to visit Milo - please do.
