Description

I've been looking for this bit on a Boston & Maine predecessor for 40 years! Finally proof that all of those B&M marked keys were re-use of the Fitchburg division. Thank You consignor. This key made my day! It's a Bohannan with standard FRR marking on the front and the Brooklyn hallmark o the reverse. This key is a missing link.
