New Hampshire - Potter Place Railroad Station
Andover, NH - The Potter Place railroad station, built in 1874, houses a significant portion of the Society's historical collection. This station is an extremely well-preserved example of Victorian station design and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. It is located on the Northern Railroad (later the Boston & Maine Railroad) line that ran from Boston to White River Junction in Vermont, and on to Montreal. This station preserves intact the station master's office, and recreates the feeling of a busy railroad depot of the early to mid 20th century.
The station now functions as a museum, displaying many of the artifacts in the Andover Historical Society's collection. Annually a special exhibit is mounted featuring a particular aspect of the history of the Town of Andover.
