BRUNSWICK, Maine — Electricity went out for approximately 7,200 customers in Brunswick, Topsham, Harpswell and parts of Freeport this morning because of a problem at a Central Maine Power substation in Topsham.
The cause of the outage, which started around 9:30 a.m., was not immediately known, according to CMP spokeswoman Gail Rice.
The outage affected traffic signals in the region and included offices at The Times Record, leaving press machines idle.
Power was restored shortly after 1 p.m.
Times Record carriers will be delivering their newspapers as soon as possible.
You have to love it. When CMP was American owned they never lost power every other day for no reasons. A Spanish Company buys CMP to make profits and the reliability of electric power goes down the tubes. Guess the Slum Lords in Barcelona Spain could give a crap whether Mainers have electricity or not.
who cares if that newspaper loses power nobody reads that rag paper anyways bhahahhahahha
When does the national guard show up?
So im guessing that if the newspaper carrier had the papers they would have been delivered with maybe a delay,but it wasn’t a delivery problem it was a printing problem,Gotta love the twist on words in the headlines.NEWS HEADLINE, Paperboys upset at power being out refuse to deliver papers on time!!!!
