However you managed to stumble accross this site, you have stumbled across what I hope will be one of the most comprehensive internet websites regarding the former Maine Central Mountain Division and the Boston & Maine North Conway Branch on the internet today. Here is a quote that I wrote with the help of my father when I was 9 years old and just becoming interested in the area:

"Imagine yourself driving along a road surrounded with huge mountains and suddenly you come to this deserted railroad station that says "Crawfords". Why would it be there? What would happen to it?"

Well, here, on this web-site, is the why...
