This Bangor & Aroostook 40’ boxcar was built in 1954 by American Car & Foundry, and decorated in the “State of Maine” red, white and blue scheme. Bangor & Aroostook was formed in 1891 and quickly grew to have an extensive rail network throughout Maine. In the late 1890s BAR began to transport potatoes, and by WWII this made up over half of the revenue for the railroad, while the remaining portion was from chemical and industrial shipments. In the late 1980s, the reduction of industry along BAR lines forced the railroad into bankruptcy.
