1947 Fire
In 1947, the State of Maine experienced an abundant number of drought-induced forest fires. During that year, the wooden roller-coaster at Old Orchard burned to the ground. I was 11 years old. The family had gone to Old Orchard for the day and as we returned via Route 1 through Scarborough, we could see the smoke from the fire. Ken Lord, Syracuse, NY.
