Maine history isn't just stored in textbooks or museums—it's alive right here in our own backyard! 🌲🚂

When you support the Downeast Scenic Railroad, you're directly investing in our local community. Our non-profit line preserves the industrial story of Hancock County, serving as an outdoor classroom where local students, young families, and residents can touch, feel, and experience the living history that shaped coastal Maine.

This morning Call Department member, Firefighter Joel Behr received The Coast Guard Commendation Medal for his role as Executive Petty Officer at the Southwest Harbor station. Among his accolades in his 3 years in that role are revitalizing the Heavy Weather program and piloting the 47 foot motor lifeboat. Under his leadership over 2 million dollars in property and 117 lives were saved. A hearty thank you to FF Behr for his efforts on the coast as well as his countless hours served at the Ellsworth Fire Department. Best of luck at your new station, your brothers and sister will miss you.
