I'll review this article within the week. eviolite (talk) 02:51, 18 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

GA review (see here for what the criteria are, and here for what they are not)

It is reasonably well written.
a (prose, spelling, and grammar): b (MoS for lead, layout, word choice, fiction, and lists):
It is factually accurate and verifiable.
a (reference section): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR): d (copyvio and plagiarism):
It is broad in its coverage.
a (major aspects): b (focused):
It follows the neutral point of view policy.
Fair representation without bias:
It is stable.
No edit wars, etc.:
It is illustrated by images and other media, where possible and appropriate.
a (images are tagged and non-free content have fair use rationales): b (appropriate use with suitable captions):
Overall:
Pass/Fail:

Sourcing, images good
For the lead, add a qualifier like "the newly constructed" before Chelsea station in the last sentence, for clarity
- Done
Unless I'm missing something, "Washington Street" should be "Washington Avenue" in all mentions (including in history)
- Done
"The remaining commuter rail platform is located on the north side of the two tracks, with a metal shelter. The station is accessible for Silver Line buses but not commuter rail." - since commuter rail no longer stops at the station I would clarify with something like "disused" (and I don't know if accessibility for the rail platforms are necessary for the same reason)
- Done Updated the wording.
I'm a bit confused, can't see where on the map it suggests that Route 111 runs on Broadway (it looks to be a different road from 116/117)
- Done
Link Revere, Massachusetts and main line (railway)
- Done
Per Wikipedia:Using maps and similar sources in Wikipedia articles#Original research, "in the 1880s or 1890s." should probably be "by the 1890s".
- Done
Not sure why there's an ellipsis after "Danvers River drawbridge"
- Done It was my addition, but I have no idea why. Perhaps a stray kitty paw.
There's a mention of "right of way" before the link - should move the link up (and change it to use "right-of-way" for consistency)
- Done
