Wayland’s Railroad: Central Massachusetts Railroad

Sunday, November 18 ~ 2:30 pm Rick Conard, Wayland Historical Commission
Wayland Museum & Historical Society

Rick Conard has been interested in the history of the railroad in Wayland since his high school days in the late 1960s when he researched and wrote school papers on the railroad and rode and photographed trains in town.  As a member of the Wayland Historical Commission he has supported preserving railroad buildings and remaining foundations in Wayland Center as part of a railroad interpretive site.  His illustrated presentation will focus on Wayland as a railroad town on the Boston & Maine Railroad Central Massachusetts line.  For those interested in walking the length of the newly paved Wayside Rail Trail on a self-guided historical tour through Wayland and Weston, copies of the Spring 2018 Weston Historical Society Bulletin will be available for sale.

Refreshments follow in the Stone Room of the Grout Heard House.
