Maine Central Railroad Company

In 1845 the Androscoggin & Kennebec Railroad was chartered to build a line from Danville Junction on the Atlantic & St. Lawrence (Grand Trunk) to Waterville, and the Penobscot & Kennebec Railroad was chartered to extend the Androscoggin & Kennebec line to Bangor. The former line was completed to Waterville in 1849, and the first train entered Bangor over the latter road in August, 1855. These railroads, forming a continuous line between Danville Junction and Bangor, were consolidated in 1862 to form the Maine Central Railroad Company.
