Dorchester & Milton Railway Key J. L. Howard

Item Details

Description

If you google this name it shows a very early operation. There are several D&M RRs that have existed over the years but this key was made by J. L. Howard, so it has to be very early. The “RW” marking for Railway is also a very early style of lettering. It seems like any J. L. Howard marked key is a real find. There is a chip off the top edge.
