If you were to drive around North Easton, MA you would have never thought a train ran through the heart of this community. Just off of Oliver Street you will find a single story building with lots of character, with a platform and abandon railroad tracks peeking thru the grass and weeds. Constructed in 1881 and designed by Architect Henry H. Richardson who also designed eight other railroad stations. It’s been 38 years (1976) since a train made its way passed this now National Historic Landmark. Trains may someday pass this historic station again with the South Coast Rail Project. This will bring commuter rail service back to this area and southern points like Taunton, New Bedford and Fall River. Right now, it’s unknown when this project will be completed.
Last fall I stopped by the North Easton Station to take few photos.
