Thank you for your interest in the Boston Street Railway Association! A non-profit educational organization, the BSRA was founded in 1959 to publish, exhibit, and preserve materials and information relating to all forms of local and regional mass transit. The association also seeks to inform the public of past and present trends in mass transit.
