This question about the three systems was not visible in my view of the relevant 'quiz' thread when the forums came back up yesterday -- and I looked carefully and repeatedly for it when this thread was initially posted. I find on checking (~9:30am Central 5/11) that the question appears in detail, and I suspect it should be possible for Mr. Klepper to go in and edit it at this time.
Kind of hard to decode the typing. Lynn MA was served by B&M (Steam, now MBTA Conmmuter Rail), BRB&L (electric, left before WWII, ROW part of today's MBTA Blue Line), and Easter Massachusetts Street Railway, some of which was absorbed by the T, all bus now.
