In 2004, Westford Author, Paul Baillio wrote a book on the history of an old railroad that had significant impact on the railroad history of Westford and surrounding towns, entitled “The Nashua, Acton, & Boston Railroad, 1873-1926, A Legacy of Wonderful Arch Bridges and Quiet Walking Trails.” You probably are already familiar with the Stone Arch Bridge Trail which was the roadbed for this railroad.
Westford Historian Marilyn Day, along with assistance from Rick Hurst, member of the Boston & Maine Archives, has added bells and whistles to Mr. Baillio’s research with more pictures and information about this Westford rail line.
