Nashua City Station Railroad History
Description
Excerpted from the website:
- Nashua City, as the name appears in some timetables, or City Station as its called by locals, was built in 1848 at the corner of Main and Canal Streets at Railroad Square. It was originally part of the Nashua & Lowell Railroad, which was the first steam railroad in the state of New Hampshire. The two story brick passenger station served as the Nashua terminal for the Nashua & Lowell, home of the Franklin Opera House, and the home of the Indian Head Bank. City Station was commonly referred to as 'Nashua' on early timetables of the Boston & Maine Railroad, as City Station was located in the heart of Downtown. The Concord Depot, situated at Nashua Junction, became Nashua Union Station once all the rail lines were under control of the Boston & Maine. Often when mentioned, Union Station was dropped in casual conversation, and the Concord Depot eventually replaced City Station as 'Nashua'.
