Boston Street Railway Association
The Boston Street Railway Association (BSRA) is a non-profit organization in Boston, Massachusetts whose central objective is preserving transportation history in Boston and throughout New England. They host monthly membership meetings, publish a bimonthly transit news magazine, and are restoring an ex-Boston Type 5 streetcar. They also regularly publish their own books and materials, as well as organize fan trips on Boston's MBTA and to the Seashore Trolley Museum in Kennebunkport, Maine. Funding for the organization is provided primarily through tax-deductible member and individual donations, as well as through grants and donations from other organizations and groups.
The BSRA maintains a website at (thebsra.org ). The site displays upcoming monthly meeting topics, information about the Association, and a mail-order and online bookstore.
==History==
The BSRA was founded in 1959, centered on the preservation of Type 5 streetcar #5706, which had been obtained by the founding members. The organization has since become known for its publications, which have covered various aspects of public transportation history in New England and the Boston area, its occasional fan trips on the Boston MBTA's system and other places, as well as for its bimonthly magazine, ''Roll Sign''.
Membership in the BSRA is available to anyone around the world, and rates are dependent on age and desired status. Four levels of membership are offered: Intermediate (under 18), Regular (over 18), Associate (over 18 with limited benefits), and Subscriber (''Roll Sign'' subscription only). All Intermediate and Regular members receive all BSRA publications as well as ''Roll Sign'' by mail at no additional cost. Associate members receive ''Roll Sign'' plus a 40% discount on BSRA publications, and Subscribers receive ''Roll Sign'' only.
