Alan MacMillan, Jr. presents a look at the last days of the Conway Branch of the Boston & Maine, showing the last passenger train to operate on the B&M’s Portsmouth Branch, a New Hampshire PUC (Public Utilities Commission) passenger extra on July 15, 1971. The special, a 179-mile inspection tour of northern New Hampshire freight railroad assets, then continued up the Conway Branch and the Maine Central’s Mountain Division to Whitefield and then back on B&M tracks to Littleton, NH.
These photos come to us courtesy of the late Jim McGill, a chief train dispatcher on the B&M, and rules examiner for the Green Mountain Railroad, who passed away 20 years ago. Jim, as train dispatcher for the B&M and a consummate railfan, was keenly aware of “last runs” all over the system, and chased both of the trains featured in this program.
