Moments Project – The History of the Union Station

The Union Station (1915). Brattleboro Vermont.
A little after 7 AM on August 12, 1916 railroad employees moved
several thousand tickets from the old station to the new. The old station
had been on the east side of the tracks. Baggage, checks and records
also made the trip to the new Union Station. The station and all tracks
were used by two railroads. Passengers no longer had to switch trains at
the Brattleboro stop.
This former railroad station is made of local quartzite rubble mined
from New Hampshire. When the first train came to town in 1849, the
station was located on the east side of the tracks. The current station
became a museum in the 1970s. In 1869 there was a white house here.
In 1895 W.H. Dutton had a marble works here. Today it is the
Brattleboro Museum and Arts Center.
