A Boston & Providence Railroad milestone reading "B. 48 Km 29.82 M" along the former Dedham Branch right of way in Dedham, Massachusetts. The marker is clearly in the wrong place - less than eleven route miles from Boston. "Mixed Train to Providence" remarks that the mile marker is likely originally from just north of Attleboro and was in this position by 1982, having been moved for unknown reasons. Captain William Gibbs McNeill, who built the B&P, was enamored of the European kilometer system but failed to secure more widespread adoption of the unit on American railroads.
