Trans County Promoters Seek Hancock Electric Railroad
A proposed charter for an electric railroad from Ellsworth to Castine through Surry Bluehill Sedgwick Brookeville Castine includes a branch to Ellsworth from Washington Junction and to Lamoine and Trenton. Promoters led by I L Hulman and Halman tout economic benefits, with possible bond funding after route surveys, while Castine Railway opposes. The plan would boost Ellsworth as traffic and summer business grow along Eggemoggin Beach, offering a winter-port link and Castine boat connections.
