=== Railroads === Historically, Concord served as an important railroad terminal and station for the [[Boston and Maine Railroad]]. The former Concord Station was located at what is now a [[Burlington (department store)|Burlington]] department store on Storrs Street. The station itself was built in 1860, but the fourth and most famous iteration of the station was built in 1885, which had a brick head house designed by [[Bradford Gilbert|Bradford L. Gilbert]]. The head house was demolished in 1959 and replaced by a smaller "McGinnis Era" station. By 1967, all passenger rail services to Concord had been discontinued.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Concord Station - Concord, New Hampshire |url=http://www.nashuacitystation.org/station/new-hampshire/merrimack/concord/concord/ |access-date=2022-11-16 |website=www.nashuacitystation.org |language=en}}</ref> For 13 months in 1980 and 1981, [[MBTA Commuter Rail]] ran two round trips a day between Boston and Concord.
