... that transit service on part of MBTA bus route 86 dates back to 1858? Source: Origin and Development of the Fixed-Route Local Bus Transportation Network..., page 200: "On November 15, 1930, BERy buses replaced trolleys between Union Square in Somerville and Sullivan Square Station via Washington and Cambridge Streets. This segment first had street railway service as part of a line of the Somerville Horse Railroad, opened in 1858. "
