Topic Summary

I recently picked up the negative for that station photo below. Unfortunately it was completely unidentified. There's a station sign, but the focus isn't completely sharp and it's difficult to read -- although as best I could make out it seemed to say "Lawrence." If that's so, it probably would be the B&M at Lawrence, MA. But I've never seen pics of B&M's old Lawrence station, so I can't confirm.
 
Anyone out there recognize this? Any hints would be welcome -- thanks very much!

I posted the photo to the Railway Station Historical Society email list, if anyone responds I'll post it here.

Found a great site with old postcards of many Massachusetts stations.
Yours is North Station, Lawrence MA (on the B&M) as you suspected.

Thanks, Charlie -- you're a lifesaver. For that you win a lifetime pass on the Philadelphia & Columbia Railroad.
