Train transporting military tanks spotted in Hermon

HERMON, Maine (WABI) - People driving along Route 2 in Hermon Wednesday morning may have thought a military invasion was being prepared.

We are happy to report that is not the case.

These tanks could be seen on a train at Northern Maine Junction this morning.

According to the Maine National Guard, these howitzers are being moved out of Maine.

They were being stored under a contract with the federal government.

The tanks are headed to Presque Isle and will then be moved to an unknown location.

This isn't something you see everyday! Our Maine Northern Railway and Eastern Maine Railway teams did an exceptional job...
