If you look at the 1934 aerial, you can see that the line ran cross-country, in the general direction you describe but not along Bear Hill Road. Here's the link:<br /><br />http://cslib.contentdm.oclc.org/cdm/singleitem/collection/p4005coll10/id/2946<br /><br />Street Railway Review, May 20, 1903, p. 153, published a map of the whole route (before the Scituate Reservoir rerouting). It's available in Google Books:<br /><br />https://books.google.com/books?id=aEE_AQAAMAAJ&lpg=PA153&ots=nP3CFV08nd&dq=providence%20danielson%20railway%20route&pg=PA153#v=onepage&q=providence%20danielson%20railway%20route&f=false<br /><br />BRUCE CLOUETTEBruceclouettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02972046683126554695noreply@blogger.com
