Prose

 * "In 1876, town officials" – nitpicking, but do the sources say what role these town officials had? The word choice is fairly vague.
 * ✅ Clarified.
 * "the B&M held contests among its station agents to create floral displays at its station." – was this at the station or in the station? Additionally, were these displays intended for the station or does the source not say? Also;
 * "[…] create floral displays at its station." – recommend "[…] create floral displays at the station." to avoid repeating the previous its station earlier in the same sentence.
 * ✅ Reworded in a way that should fix both points.
 * "In 1926–27" – recommend "Between 1926 and 1927".
 * I tend to reserve "between" for ranges; construction took place in 1926 and 1927.
 * Noted!
 * "the only surviving stations of the Lexington Branch are Bedford and Lexington" – sentence is missing a period.

Refs
Spotchecks on refs 1, 2, 7, 15, 19 and 21 show no concerns—they all support the article's content. I had access to confirm ref 21 via a preview on Google Books.


 * Ref 2 is missing a publication date.
 * This document is an odd one - it's updated a few times a year, hence why I don't have the date in the template. I can add an accessdate if really necessary, but I don't personally think it's needed.
 * Ah, I see. Well, for cite web templates dates are not required so I doubt they are needed in this case either.

Other
Templates (including infobox and coords), external links and cats good.
