Maine Central Battles for Equitable Grain Freight Rates
Maine Central Railroad chief E Spencer Miller told the New England conference of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers that the railroad fights to secure fair grain freight rates for Maine poultry raisers. He warned politicians may back a $5 million plan to build a Rockland water terminal to move grain off rail, a move he says threatens the company and its workers. At a Portland Poultry Day, officials questioned feasibility and proposed barge routes via the New York canal system, noting unloading costs at Maine ports and a hoped-for waterfront grain terminal in Rockland offering storage and rail access.
