Whats with the cobra?

 

What's up with quoting five images to write four words on just one of them?

 

That cobra is on U.S. 1 at the Miami Serperterium.

 

Train accident of the morning of Friday, September 12, 1905 at Alna, Maine. Engine #4 was derailed. This train was part of the Wisc***et, Waterville & Farmington Railway, a narrow gauge line that operated from about 1895-1934. On the morning of the accident, the train was heading for Wisc***et. A**** the p***engers were sixty-five Freemasons from Waterville on their way to visit another chapter in Wisc***et. The wreck came to be known as "The Masons' Wreck". The train was steaming up an incline and was p***ing over a short, open bridge when the engine jumped the rails and ran into the shallow brook. The box car, the express car, and the postal and baggage cars piled up. The two p***enger cars did not leave the tracks. There were no injuries in the accident. Information source: "Two Feet to Tidewater; Wisc***et, Waterville & Farmington Railway" by Robert C. Jones & David L. Register.

 

Having fun their own way....

 

Cute little "tea kettle"! The Wisc***et and Quebec Railroad began operating on February 20, 1895. The line was reorganized in 1901 as the Wisc***et, Waterville and Farmington Railway. In the late 1920s, the railroad began to struggle, thanks to compe***ion from roads. On June 15, 1933, as a result of a locomotive derailment, operations ceased. Most of the railroad was s****ped.
Beginning in the early 1990s, a non-profit organization established the WW&F Railway Museum. It restored several privately owned pieces of former WW&F rolling stock and rebuilt about 2 miles of former WW&F track in Alna. The museum runs two-foot gauge steam and diesel locomotives and other historic equipment, and has other pieces on static display.
