Excerpt: ...a Union Station could be built for the use of the Eastern and Boston and Lowell Railroads. The new terminus was so small that the locomotives drawing the trains did not enter it at all. About half a mile outside, the engine would be detached and switched off and the cars rolled into the station on their own momentum. This required good judgment and nerve on the part of the train crews, as the slightest miscalculation in applying the brakes might result in the cars crashing through the station into Causeway street. Strange to say, the practice continued for a great many years. The East Boston depot was given up almost entirely / to freight purposes (a few branch passenger trains were From a point a little northerly of the Charlestown State Prison, where the Boston & Maine freight yards now are, was then water and mud flats, which were not filled in until many years later. run for many years to East Boston from Lynn and Revere), and the stock in the East Boston Ferry Company was divided among the stockholders as a stock dividend. In 1854 the legislature of Massachusetts passed a law allowing railroad corporations to fund their floating debts by means of bond issues, and the stockholders of the Eastern Railroad accordingly authorized their directors to-issue bonds to an amount not exceeding 1,500,000.00, bearing six per cent, interest; of this $1,200,000.00 were sold at a rate averaging 83 1-3 per cent. In the meantime the Saugus branch was opened for.travel on February 1, 1853, its eastern terminus being Lynn Common, for its track did not join the main line of the Eastern at West Lynn.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Built by James Everell Henry, the East Branch & Lincoln Railroad (EB&L) is considered to be the grandest and largest logging railroad operation ever built in New England. In 1892, the mountain town of Lincoln, New Hampshire, was transformed from a struggling wilderness enclave to a thriving mill town when Henry moved his logging operation from Zealand. He built houses, a company store, sawmills, and a railroad into the East Branch of the Pemigewasset River watershed to harvest virgin spruce. Despite the departure of the last EB&L log train from Lincoln Woods by 1948, the industry's cut-and-run practices forever changed the future of land conservation in the region, prompting legislation like the Weeks Act of 1911 and the Wilderness Act of 1964. Today, nearly every trail in the Pemigewasset Wilderness follows or utilizes portions of the old EB&L Railroad bed.

She has also brought for the same purpose about 2000 bars of railroad iron. The original sleepers on the Lowell road were of granite, but were soon done away with as they were found to make the track too rigid. At first the stage companies did not anticipate any very serious results from the new competition. A prominent stage proprietor in Providence, R. I., said, shortly before the Opening of the railroad Let the train run off the track when going thirty miles an hour and kill two or three hundred people a few times and people will be ready to stick to the stages.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Once there was an endless redwood wilderness, populated by only the hardiest of people. Then, the sudden blast of a steam whistle echoed across the canyons and the valleys-the iron horse had arrived in the Santa Cruz Mountains. Driven by the need to transport materials like lumber and lime to the rest of the world, the railroad brought people seeking out new ways of living, from the remote outposts along Bean and Zayante Creeks to the bustling towns of Los Gatos and Santa Cruz. Bridges and tunnels marked the landscape, and each new station, siding and spur signaled activity: businesses, settlements, and vacation spots. Summer resorts in the mountains evolved into sprawling residential communities which formed the backbone of the towns of the San Lorenzo Valley today. Much of the history of the locations along the route has since been forgotten. This is their story.
