The February meeting of the Boston & Maine Railroad Historical Society features a program by the society’s own Rick Kfoury. Rick is a student of northern New England railways in general and the B&M in particular and currently serves as a director and the Newsletter Editor. He will present images and information on the final years of freight service on the B&M’s Portsmouth Branch, with emphasis on the Manchester to Rockingham Jct. portion. Rick is a photographer, writer and author. His story of Manchester’s railroads, Queen City Rails, has recently been published by the B&MRRHS. Rick is happy to answer questions following the presentation. The society’s sales table offers B&M labelled outerwear, shirts and hats, along with train themed books, bulletins, DVDs and models. Location is Rogers Hall on Rogers St. in Lowell, Ma. Free parking across the street.
