Monadnock Railroad

Transport company in the United States1

The Monadnock Railroad was one of many extension line railroads built to help expand the Fitchburg Railroad/Vermont and Massachusetts Railroad into New Hampshire. This line was to serve the New Hampshire towns on the eastern side of Mount Monadnock, mainly Jaffrey and Peterborough. It took quite a bit of time for the line to get going after the railroad was chartered in 1848.2 Wikipedia text CC BY-SA 4.0
