My earlier email response seems to have gotten lost in the ether so I'll try again. No mistype. I used to call the Bangor and Aroostook RR the BAR until some folks in Maine corrected me and said it was the B&A. Now I suppose they could have been pulling my New York leg. But I Chose to believe them.
Those Maine folks may be right, locally, but the entire remainder of the world knows the B&A as the Boston & Albany.
