I can't remember what the name of the system in question was (was it maybe
Salisbury and Garrett?) but I saw what I'm guessing was a remnant today.
It was either that or something left from a lifted B&O spur, but for some
reason I have the idea that it was in the right place to be a lifted
trolley line. More particularly, when heading south on US 219, as you are
just about at the left hand curve (with the creek on your right) to enter
the "village of Boynton" you can see a grade and abutments where a bridge
crossed the creek. I didn't get a picture but it's my hope to get one some
time in the future, probably during low-shrubbery season, and make it
available online.
