“Between Sacton and Wall Lake 4. Subdivision 3 ends at Junction with Subdivision 1 just west of
switch of west Y at Sacton, and this track from connection at west end of Wall Lake Yard will be

just beyond the limits of the map.
Sacton Station
The station needs a train order office (for trains on Subdivision 1), a telegraph office operated by the
agent, and a train order board. I’m almost positive the station is located in the center of the wye because
the timetable I have notes that the west leg of the wye ends ¼ mile from the station. ¼ mile from the
switch put the station at the center of the wye.
