Bangor
and Aroostook Railroad - (en)
The Bangor and Aroostook Railroad (AAR reporting marks BAR) is a defunct
United States railroad company, that formerly operated lines in northern
Maine.
The company was incorporated in 1891 to combine the lines of the former
Bangor and Piscataquis Railroad and the Bangor and Katahdin Iron Works
Railway. 
It was based in Bangor and lines extended from there to Oakfield,
Houlton, Madawaska, Presque Isle, and Searsport.
In 1995, the BAR was acquired by Iron Road Railways. In 2002, the company
was declared bankrupt, and in 2003 its lines were sold to Rail World,
Inc., which incorporated them into the newly-formed Montreal, Maine and
Atlantic Railway.
