Springfield, Athol and North-eastern Railroad

The Springfield, Athol and North–eastern Railroad was a railroad that operated in the northeast United States in the 19th century.

History

The Athol and Enfield Railroad was chartered in 1869, and succeeded by the Springfield, Athol and North-eastern Railroad in 1873, opening in 1873 as a branch from Athol Junction in Springfield to the Vermont and Massachusetts Railroad in Athol. The B&A bought the line in 1880. The majority of the line was closed in the 1930s due to the formation of the Quabbin Reservoir.
