 * Lead and infobox; all good
 * Section 1.1;
 * was variously known as Mystic, Bacons Bridge, and Symmes Bridge; are these the former names of the station or the names of the bridge? If it is the latter, remove it. Because it goes out of context
 * a station did not open; be specific, "a station" may refer to anything, make it clear that the subject is the same
 * Section 1.2;
 * from 2008 until to 2014
 * ticket office was closed in 1960; was it never opened? So how are the tickets issued? Where was ticket office moved to, to the two-story brick station? Please make this clear
 * From the introduction of MBTA; mention MBTA is full as it is the first mention in prose and put MBTA in braces. Use acronym from second use
 * low ridership - less than 600 riders per day as of 2009 - Wedgemere was not chosen; per WP:EMDASH, use unspaced em dashes for explation; low ridership—less than 600 riders per day as of 2009—Wedgemere was not chosen
 * Two dead links found, fix or replace them
 * 2.9% confidence, violation unlikely

 * Thanks for taking this on. I just fixed the dead links and grammatical issues. Mystic, Bacons Bridge, and Symmes Bridge were all names of the station itself according to the book that I've referenced. It was very common in the early days of railroading for stations to be named after nearby geographic features or structures; other early station names on the same line included Milk Row, Medford Steps, Water Place, and Bleachery.
