Concord & Montreal Railroad

The Concord & Montreal Railroad was chartered in 1889 and only operated independently until 1895, when it was leased by the Boston & Maine railroad. It continued to exist as a seperate entity until it was formerly merged into the Boston & Maine railroad in 1919. This elegant structure, built in 1886, was the Concord train station, as well as the headquarters of the C&M. This beautiful building was torn down in 1960 to make way for the ugly Capitol Shopping Plaza.
