Additional Property Attributes

Former Use: The Site consists of an irregular-shaped parcel of land, encompassing approximately 100.7 acres, located approximately 1.65 miles southeast of downtown Milo. Properties in the Site vicinity are primarily residential. The northern adjoining neighborhoods were originally constructed for the housing of Derby Shops employees. The Site is surrounded by vacant land to the west, and bordered by the Piscataquis River to the east and south. Based on available information, it appears the Site has been utilized as a rail yard, since its development, circa 1906. The Site was initially owned by the Bangor-Aroostook Railroad from the early 1900s to circa 1994, when it was bought by the Montreal, Maine & Atlantic Railway. Camden National Bank assumed control of the Site upon bankruptcy proceedings circa 2013. Central Maine & Quebec Railroad (CMQR) currently leases a portion of the property from Camden National Bank for railroad repair and maintenance operations. The Site is currently improved with 13 buildings (the ?Site buildings?), which are identified as the Office/Store, Car Repair Shop, Car Shop Annex, Locomotive Shop/Former Paint Shop, Oil/Water Separator Building, Wash Bay, Fueling Platform, Lumber Shed, Paint Shop, Machine Shop, Former Roundhouse, Coal Tower, and Derby Community Center/Hall. Numerous railroad tracks and rail spurs occupy the areas surrounding the Site buildings. A ?Scrap Yard?, where rail car scrapping operations occur, is located in the northwestern portion of the Site. Additional rail car scrapping areas were also identified to the south of the Former Roundhouse building and west of the Car Repair Shop and Car Repair Annex buildings. A former wastewater lagoon and capped landfill areas are located between the Site buildings and the Piscataquis River to the south/southeast of the Site.
