Looking South at Potter Place

            The village of Potter Place which is in the small town of Andover, NH was once a busy place on the old New Hampshire main line of the Boston and Maine Railroad.  This line connected Concord with White River Jct., and was an important link between Boston and Montreal.  The 70 miles between Concord and Lebanon, however, generated very little freight revenue, and served a very rural section of the state with little passenger traffic.  Passenger service ended in the mid 1960s, and in the next decade, freight traffic became lighter and lighter.  The line was formally abandoned in 1992, and has since become a rail trail.
