Ancient find.

Here is a shot of a wheel-set which I found in the woods in Scarborough, Maine near the Portland Railroad Company building posted previously. The set appears to be pre-electric trolley - horsecar wheels if I'm not mistaken. I believe that the non-geared, plain axle gives it away. It may have been a set on a four-wheel P.R.R.Co. horsecar about 120 years ago !
