I just received 7 emails over the last few minutes. I had one email a few days ago. Nothing for weeks.
Thank you for the reference to the on-line maps. The loop is clearly shown. What is of greater interest is the Right of Way shown on the map which conected the Brookline line down thru the railroad overpass portal to the interurban line. I always wondered how the lines interconnected and I now have that reference. This map is far more definitive than anything else available in the past.
