Just wondering if they had flag stops/stations at the long gone Foxborough State Hospital and the just barely still open Taunton State Hospital "back in the day?"

Both had spur tracks to them; see http://docs.unh.edu/MA/tntn44sw.jpg and http://docs.unh.edu/MA/wren40se.jpg for 40s maps. Not sure about stations.

The Taunton spur was only for coal deliveries for the power plant. Came off the Danforth Street
freight yard. I remember it being in place into the early 70's. If they got cars that late is unknown.
