Twofootartist’s Random Ramblings

These drawings were developed a dozen years ago with a lot of help from Bob Schlechter and were originally published in Robert Jones’ book Two Feet to Togus. Until they were published, no photos of the east side had surfaced. Immediately afterward, of course, the original architect’s drawings emerged. Although those architect’s drawings were diagrammatic and included details that could not physically be built, they showed a different arrangement of door and windows on the east side. The drawings shown here have been corrected. As usual, left click on the drawings to enlarge them.

At some point around 1910 the freight doors were replaced by windows and the corner freight room made into the railroad superintendent’s office.

Over the years the Kennebec Central had at least three enginehouses in Randolph. Here are my drawings of the last of them.

And while we are on the subject of the Kennebec Central, here’s a drawing I did many years ago of the combine that the KC converted from one of its Jackson & Sharp excursion cars.
