Illustrated Boston & Maine Station in South Acton on corkwood coaster set

Boston & Maine Station

Bring a little South Acton home.

Corkwood Coaster Set · Four pieces · 3.75 × 3.75 inches

The cups are ready for tea, with coasters set out around the table and a little time to notice the pictures before everyone settles into a seat. 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. Put them where the kettle's cups are usually gathered, so the view has a place in the ordinary routine of tea at home.
