Boston is one of Wayne County's smallest incorporated towns, but it has a distinctive transportation issue: active railroad service connected with agricultural and transload operations.

Driving in Boston: Railroad and Agricultural Traffic
Indiana Eastern Railroad
Wayne County's current development narrative states that Indiana Eastern Railroad enters Wayne County south of Boston and runs north toward Richmond, with a spur serving an agricultural fertilizer and grain facility at Boston.
That makes railroad operations a real Boston-specific transportation condition.
Drivers should:
Obey active railroad signals.
Avoid stopping on crossings.
Leave space around large trucks serving agricultural or transload facilities.
Never assume a track is inactive.
Current Investment in Boston Rail Operations
INDOT's FY 2024 Industrial Rail Service Fund awards included $250,000 to Indiana Eastern Railroad for track rehabilitation that included work supporting the growing pet-food-ingredient transload facility in Boston.
This is strong evidence that Boston's rail infrastructure remains operational rather than purely historical.
Boston Downtown District
Boston is also one of the communities included in Wayne County's 2026 READI Downtown Revitalization Program.
Again, that program concerns property investment and does not establish a general street closure.

Boston does not have a BMV branch.
