Interesting post about Boston’s railroad history

Evan wrote a piece on benallaroundtheworld today, where he nicely describes the history of the various stations located in the city of Boston. I’ll be able to visit South and North Stations myself later this year, when my trip around the USA takes me through there.

I was digging around the net today, looking for some information regarding the history of Boston’s railroad network. It didn’t take long for me to realize just how extensive and complicated Boston’s network of railroads was at the end of the 19th century, and how 20th century railway consolidation has carved these systems down to what they are today.
