About this map

The Old Colony Railroad defines the late 19th-century landscape of this Massachusetts coastline, connecting a string of seaside villages from Scituate Harbor down to Kingston. The map illustrates a maritime economy in transition, where traditional coastal landmarks like the Gurnet Lights and the Old Tower Light at Cedar Point stand alongside modern infrastructure like the Telegraph Cable to Brest and a local Telegraph Office.
