Meredith train wreck

Aqua-andy · 07-21-2013, 10:52 AM

Has anyone found anything substantial at the train wreck location? The only posits I have found pertaining to it one from Diver1111 and not much found. I keep looking for used Hummingbird side scans but they are still out of my budget

Diver1111 had a great thread on the train wreck off of the weirs. I'm not sure if this is the one you are looking for or not. Here's the link http://www.winnipesaukee.com/forums/...ad.php?t=10628

That's the one I was referring to, I just did not know if anyone has actually found the other pieces like the paper rolls.

The train wreck is pretty close to where it’s indicated on the charts. The operative word here is “wreck”, meaning not much recognizable. It looks like a pile of old boards and some iron wheels strewn about the bottom. The real treasure (there I go, loosely using that word again) is further down the slope about 90 feet deep are six huge rolls of paper, you can add your name to the honor roll.

Both of these wrecks are deep and cold, so be prepared. Pick a bright sunny day and mid-day is best.

Side scan shots attached; I was not towing the fish but hanging it off the bow-got a little bumpy so image is wavy. I'll try to get some others.

I've only found one RR car in that area although I have for some reason the idea that there is more than one.

It would be great to find the paper and get some pictures.
