Nostalgia & History > Summer Camp Trains to Wolfeboro, NHDate: 07/24/05 12:25 Summer Camp Trains to Wolfeboro, NH Author: mp16 When I was a teenager in the 1950's I used to vacation in Wolfeboro, NH during the summer. On several occasions I saw summer camp trains arriving at Wolfeboro station. As I remember it, the cars were rather old Pullmans that were used for such service. Does anyone remember where these trains came from ? When did the B&M end such service ? Since passenger service ended to Wolfeboro around 1936 it was always interesting to see the camp trains arrive. I'd appreciate any information that someone can offer. Thanks in advance to those who respond.
