RAILROAD PROPERTIES ON THE NATIONAL REGISTER

OF HISTORIC PLATES IN MASSACHUSETTS

By Thornton Waite
The National Register of Historic Places is used to identify and help preserve not only railroad depots but other railroad related facilities as well. Bridges, right of ways, trolley car barns, and other features are listed on the Register in many states. These listing can be used to search and find railroad related properties. The Commonwealth of Massachusetts has made up a separate category and listing for railroad related properties which are either listed individually on the National Register or else which are part of a historic district. Some of the listings include properties which date back to the 1830’s when the first railroads were built in the U.S. The following listing was obtained from the Massachusetts Historical Commission and is current through March 2000. The town, address, and date of construction are summarized below. Some of the properties are only peripherally related to the railroads, but they are still of historic interest and importance.
