Bedford was founded at a ford on the River Great Ouse, and is thought to have been the burial place of Offa of Mercia. Bedford Castle was built by Henry I, although it was destroyed in 1224. Bedford was granted borough status in 1165 and has been represented in Parliament since 1265. Bedford is included in the Bedford parliamentary constituency, which includes Kempston and is represented by Richard Fuller. Bedford is well known for its large population of Italian descent. It also has an increasingly large south Asian population, especially Punjabis, and is home to the largest SikhGurdwara in the UK outside London.
Bedford Depot is a historic railroad depot at 80 Loomis Street and 120 South Road in Bedford, Massachusetts. Bedford was the junction of the Reformatory Branch and the Lexington Branch of the Boston and Maine Railroad; it saw passenger service until 1977 as the stub of the Lexington Branch. The original 1874 depot and 1877 freight house are listed on the National Register of Historic Places; along with a restored Budd Rail Diesel Car, they form the centerpieces of the Bedford Depot Park.
History
Early service
The Lexington and West Cambridge Railroad was built to what is now Lexington Center in 1845-46, and bought by the Boston and Lowell Railroad in 1870 in order to prevent the line from building an alternate route to Lowell via Bedford. In August 1873, the subsidiary Middlesex Central Railroad opened an extension to Concord Center via Bedford. A Victorian-style passenger station was built in 1874.
In 1877, the Billerica and Bedford Railroad, a 2ft (610mm) narrow-gauge line, opened from Bedford Depot to North Billerica. The line built a two-stall engine house and a turntable at the Bedford terminus. The Billerica and Bedford was markedly unsuccessful, and closed down in 1878. In 1879, the Middlesex Central was extended to Reformatory station in Concord; this permitted short-lived through service to Nashua via a connection to the Nashua, Acton, and Boston Railroad. In 1885, the Boston & Lowell rebuilt the route to Billerica as part of their standard gauge network. The depot, originally west of South Road, was moved to its present location at the junction. The narrow gauge engine house was also moved and turned into a freight depot. Two years later, the Boston and Maine Railroad absorbed the Boston & Lowell, including the two routes through Bedford.

Lyrics:
I think of days of youth
When snow would come and we would play
And jump down from the roof
Careless of the consequences
Screaming through the night; Committing senseless, stupid crimes
We’re Drinking dark-red poisoned wine; Slowly Losing sense of time
But as truth shines through the rotten sun
We screamed with realization - THE THRILL IS GONE
HERE COMES YOUR MOTHER
She steps into the church,
She bows down to the god she never knew or kissed or loved.
She prays for mercy seas to take her
Far away from harm, To be cared for and be loved
To cry out the names of god; And to be guided through the dark
But as truth shines through the rotten...

Hang the king, elect the bleak reflection of perfection

Last Train to Bedford - January 1998
This video chronicles the move of ex-Boston & Maine Railroad Budd Rail Diesel Car 6211 from the old B&M Billerica Shops to Bedford, Massachusetts, for cosmetic restoration and display at Bedford Depot Park.
Rail Diesel Car 6211 is one of several RDCs that operated between Bedford and Boston via the former B&M Lexington Branch. The final passenger train to Bedford ran on January 10, 1977. The Branch was "rail-banked" in 1991 for conversion to the Minuteman Bikeway in 1992. As part of a project to establish a railroad-themed park at the terminus of the bikeway, in 1998 the vintage Budd Car was moved by a rigging company approximately nine miles over the local roadways from the railroad's former maintenance facility to the site of the old Bedford Railroad Yard. In 2003, the car was moved aga...

But as truth shines through the rotten sun
We screamed with realization - THE THRILL IS GONE

She prays for mercy seas to take her
Far away from harm, To be cared for and be loved
To cry out the names of god; And to be guided through the dark
But as truth shines through the rotten sun
She screams with realization - THE THRILL IS GONE

Nothing lasts and nothing stays
Now we are torn apart, draw your daggers through your hearts
Pull your dreams and hopes at last for the lonesome times have passed
But as truth shines through the rotten sun
We screamed with realization - THE THRILL IS GONE

Bedford was founded at a ford on the River Great Ouse, and is thought to have been the burial place of Offa of Mercia. Bedford Castle was built by Henry I, although it was destroyed in 1224. Bedford was granted borough status in 1165 and has been represented in Parliament since 1265. Bedford is included in the Bedford parliamentary constituency, which includes Kempston and is represented by Richard Fuller. Bedford is well known for its large population of Italian descent. It also has an increasingly large south Asian population, especially Punjabis, and is home to the largest SikhGurdwara in the UK outside London.
