Illustrated Boston & Maine Station in South Acton on slate desk plaque

Boston & Maine Station

Bring a little South Acton home.

Slate Desk Plaque · 11 × 7 inches

A book, a pen and a page of work are ready on the desk, with the small plaque set nearby where there is time to notice its picture. A steam train, signals and an overhead bridge surround South Acton's station, leaving several railway details to notice beyond the depot building.

A historical postcard records South Acton's Boston and Maine station with a steam train, tracks, signals and an overhead bridge. The source was published by 1909. Together those features show the railway within a village transport setting, preserving more than the station building alone.

The station sits within a network of routes and equipment. Keep the plaque on the desk where its picture can be noticed between a page of work and the next task.
