Railroad Square in 1858, showing Portsmouth Railroad station
Bring a little Concord home.
Slate Desk Plaque · 11 × 7 inches
Set down the pen and take a moment to look up from the desk. Railroad Square's Portsmouth Railroad station puts a named point of arrival into Concord's earlier rail-terminal setting, with the square around it still in view.
Concord's city history, published in 1903, reproduces an illustration of Railroad Square in 1858 with the Portsmouth Railroad station. The square is an earlier rail-terminal scene, distinct from the later passenger-station building. It records a specific chapter of the city's transport landscape through a retrospective published image.
The square connects Concord with an earlier stage of railway travel, giving someone interested in transport a place and period to discuss alongside the picture. Set it beside your books, or give it as a local view that needs a shelf rather than wall space.
