Old train stations
 

Go to the Winnipesaukee Forum page and click on Gallery (third from left). Roam around and I am sure you will find old train stations.

thanks
 

I will try it know

Google Arch McDonald, a local and very, very RR skilled local artist. There was a large extraordinary beautiful brick and granite railroad station in Concord that I knew very well as a train obsessed kid that was torn down in the seventies as an "urban renewal" project. Truly a travesty.
The same architect designed the stations in Portland and Worcester and unfortunately they have suffered the same regretful fate

Union Station in Worcester, MA is still very much in operation. Was there another station in Worcester or are you talking about another Worcester

You're right Lon, I worded the sentence incorrectly, Portland Union Station and Concord were the ones torn down in the sixties.

I am looking for old pictures of railroad stations and pictures of Anniversary Hill Inn

Gilford parish
 

Hey Mcdude being christmas Ihave decided to buy a book for myself. How much and where do i send a check?

I'm not sure this is what you're looking for, but I read "Life by the Tracks," by Virginia Downs a couple years ago, and it was really good.

It's about the Crawford Notch railroad trestle way up there and the family that lived there for most of its existence.

It's available through the NH library system, but there's some info and reviews here: Life by the Tracks (New Hampshire - Crawford Notch)): When Passenger Trains Steamed Through the Notch https://a.co/d/120t8eP

I will be sure to borrow the book

How about the LOC?
 

The Library of Congress has a huge digital archive as does the Boston Public Library and MIT.

Here's one of the Cog Railway in 1909.

Hey Soaring Eagle: I'll send a private message. Hope you are feeling better!

While we're on the subject, I have another copy of "The Gilford Parish" for sale, If interested send me a message!

All my postcards will be going on e-bay soon. If there is a special one you are interested in LMK.

I know for a fact the old train station in Worcester is still operating and restored. My cousin Frank Noel owned it some time in the 1980s or 1990s.

Here's Union Station in Worcester.

What a beautiful building. I'm glad they didn't tear it down like they have so many.

It's a little more than I would spend for a book so I will stop by the Meredith library tomorrow and see if they can get it for me, the reviews look good.

I've collected many pics of the old RR stations on the Lakeshore, Wolfeboro and the Cocheco (Rochester to Alton) lines. Check out threads on each in the history section Soaring Eagle. Here is a rare and pristine postcard, printed in Germany 1916, of the Loon Cove Station now located at RR park in Alton.

Google “Railroad Stations in New Hampshire”. Lightlink.com has an incredible archive of all NH railroad stations. McDude - I’m a longtime reader and am in awe of your knowledge and postcard collection. Sorry to see they’re going on eBay. Time for others I guess. Thank you for all the info you have shared.
