Excerpt from Suburban Homes on the "Old Colony": A Directory for Those Who Seek a Suburban ResidenceAs will be seen, by studying the maps afore-mentioned, the Old Colony Railroad system, although comprising upwards of five hundred miles of finished and operated road, has only eleven miles of main line (from Boston to South Braintree), all the rest being branches, that have been attached from time to time since the inception of the enterprise in 1845, and have grown steadily until they have filled the whole region. It would now be hard to find in the whole of south eastern Massachusetts a village or hamlet half a dozen miles from a railroad station, the truth being that nearly every town in the region enjoys direct railroad privileges, while most of them have more than one, and sometimes five or six, stations within their limits.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
