NH Commuter Rail

NHBR.com has recieved a letter from a Eugene Skoropowski, the former chief railroad services officer for the MBTA. In the letter explains how the expiremental service in the early 80’s was very succesful.

On weekends, the one round-trip left Concord at a more civilized hour, allowing visitors and families to take the train and spend a day in Boston. This train was often “sold out” as it left Nashua, and for the first time in decades, the B&M was calling for an extra train to operate from Lowell to Boston, since the packed New Hampshire train would have to run express from Lowell to Boston.

The letter gives a brief history of the service and goes on to explain how returning the Commuter Rail to New Hampshire could be benefitial to our state and the nation as a whole. Head here to read the letter.
