Very neat pair of pictures of Fletcher's Quarry RR - did you really take this photo in 1875? :-) Here's a link to Google Maps Aerials (2D) that shows what the quarry and RR operation looks today: https://www.google.com/maps/place/Westford,+MA+01886/@42.6325341,-71.4201987,274a,35y,90h,39.47t/data=!3m1!1e3!4m5!3m4!1s0x89e3bdbb5478fbbf:0xc3965e515c48fa04!8m2!3d42.5792583!4d-71.4378411
And it looks like Fletcher's red GE 44 tonner still drags captive flatcars around loaded with granite blocks:https://www.google.com/maps/place/Westford,+MA+01886/@42.6253871,-71.4141698,74a,35y,90h,39.56t/data=!3m1!1e3!4m5!3m4!1s0x89e3bdbb5478fbbf:0xc3965e515c48fa04!8m2!3d42.5792583!4d-71.4378411
