[edit] Categories

Is it really appropriate to list a Southwest corridor project station as an Old Colony Railroad article, seeing as how the station postdates the company by nearly a century? If there was another station on the same site (or close enough; within one block) that had been served by the Old Colony and was replaced by the current structure, I could see a case, but then such information should be included in the article. As such, I disagree with the current listing in the Old Colony and B&A categories, or any other category relating to a pre-1987 entity. --CComMack 5 July 2005 05:51 (UTC)

I'm pretty sure the Old Colony had a station there. I'll check in a bit. --SPUI (talk) 5 July 2005 07:19 (UTC)

Here we go - a 1914 Sanborn shows a "Back Bay Station (NYNH&HRR)" at the location of the current station, but only over the NYNH&H tracks, and "Trinity Place Station (B&ARR)" on the north side of the B&A. --SPUI (talk) 5 July 2005 07:40 (UTC)

[edit] BIG PICTURE

[edit] That picture is way too big to start an article because all other features of it are dwarfed by comparison

Ahem.

And since this picture is about the station, not the John Hancock Tower, a good place to crop it would be about halfway down. Otherwise the picture is ambiguous.

Use the South Station (Boston) article as a guide.--Loodog 23:23, 21 August 2006 (UTC)
