1.

• Is North River (Massachusetts Bay) the North River in the station layout section? If so, it should be linked
  • Nope, different river. There's at least three North Rivers in Massachusetts - such imagination!
• "After the railroads from Boston to Lowell, Worcester, and Providence were chartered in 1830 and 1831," - Wikilink the cities not already linked
  •  Done
• "On June 16, 1846, the stockholders authorized the sale" - Whose stockholder's?
  •  Done
• " Marblehead service was halved to one daily round trip then, and cut entirely on June 14, 1959." - This needs rephrasing
  •  Done
• "Construction of $2.5 million overpass to carry Bridge Street" - Needs an "a"
  •  Done
• "over the Danvers Branch and the Topsfield Branch[39] This was" - There's a period missing in here
  •  Done

• The daily parking fee doesn't seem to be cited anywhere
  •  Done
• "bridge began on December 1, 1985" - Maybe I misread the source, but I only say the month, not the day in the source
  • It's in the bolded title of the entry
• Ref 47 shouldn't have the titles in all caps
  •  Done
• "Construction on the garage and station began in June 2013." - This is supported by a reference from March of that year. Since delays are possible in construction projects, it would be best to have a source that demonstrates that the construction actually did begin in June, besides just planned to begin.
  •  Partly done Lacking any other source to support it, I've removed the line.
• Ref 2 needs an accessdate
  •  Done
• Add an edition, if known, to the House of the Seven Gables ref. The date is given as 1893, and the book was published in 1851, so we're dealing with a later edition here
  •  Done No edition info, but added orig-year parameter
• Refs 48 and 49 shouldn't have the titles in all caps
  •  Done
• Not all of the online refs have accessdate= parameters, these should be added.
  •  Done I believe I've added these for all relevant refs (recent news stories, etc). Access date isn't relevant for archived sources, dated PDFs, etc.
• Spot check of refs is clean, as is the Earwig report
