There seems to be little about the Shawmut Branch Railroad out there, especially for pictures. Anyone have any history/info or pictures of this line before the Dorchester Extension (Ashmont Branch) occurred?
Some questions:
Was it grade separated to any degree? Did the line between Cedar Grove Cemetery and Neponset/Port Norfolk exist prior to the Dorchester Extension? Or was it built as a way to continue serving Milton/Mattapan now that it was isolated? What we the last customers along High Speed Line/when did freight end?
