Boston and Maine railroad station, Westbrook, ca. 1900

Contributed by Walker Memorial Library

Description

This Westbrook station of the Boston and Maine Railroad as it looked around 1900. The railroad depot was located at the end of Fitch Street and operated there for 50 years, from 1886-1936.

The station was constructed in sections that arrived via a flat Railroad car from Rochester New Hampshire and was then assembled on the site in 1886. The station was closed in 1936, and the agent, Frank P. Stewart, was transferred to the Cumberland Mills depot.

The station was later purchased by Fred V. Turgeon, who disassembled it to move to his Brown Street property.
