  • Transportation Timetables, 1880-2007
    MSS #015, page 1 Transportation Timetables, 1880-2007 MSS: # 016 Processed by: Jason Freitas, December 2014 Volume: 10 boxes Abstract: Timetables for railroads, bus companies, airlines, steamship, and boat transportation companies comprise this collection. The collection was accumulated over the course of about fifty years by various individuals. Though the bulk of items date from the 1940’s to the 1960’s, earlier and later periods are also well- represented. The majority of the collection consists of both employee and public timetables from railroads of New England, with other items coming from New York and Canadian railroads, a wide variety of smaller New England railroads, bus and steamship companies, and railway companies that preceded the Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority. Collection Creator: Beverly Historical Society, Walker Transportation Collection Provenance: This collection has been amassed through various donors since 1969. Conservation/Processor's Note: The majority of items consist of saddle-stitched booklets and folded pamphlets. Modern items are more likely to be plastic-coated or synthetic paper and in good condition. Items older than the 1960’s are generally more fragile and should be handled with care. Four different box shapes are used to accommodate the variety of shapes and sizes: standard letter-size boxes for booklets and fragile pamphlets, flip-top pamphlet boxes for sturdier pamphlets, flip-top photo boxes for pocket pamphlets under seven inches, and custom-size boxes for unique items. “Folders” in the pamphlet and photo boxes are not actually folders, but dividers that sit in front of the items they describe. Copyright: Request for permission to publish material from the collection must be submitted in writing to the Curator of Collections in the Cabot House of the Beverly Historical Society & Museum.

Marie, Searchmont, Trout Lake, Spruce Lake, Frater, Eton, Sand Lake, Hawk Junction, Dubreuilville, Franz, Wabatong, Oba and Hearst ≤ The ACR goes through cultural communities representing the three founding peoples of Canada: First Nations, Francophone and Anglophone ≤ The ACR travels through the Chapleau Crown Game Preserve— the world’s largest game preserve—and Lake Superior Provincial Park ≤ The ACR is one of North America’s few remaining “flag stop” trains where passengers can disembark or flag down the train anywhere along the line.
