The Berlin Street Railway of New Hampshire
The Berlin Street Railway began operation between Berlin and Gorham, New Hampshire on July 24, 1902. This enterprise enabled residents of Gorham to work and shop in Berlin. In 1920 alone, the railway transported over 1.6 million passengers. Situated on the Androscoggin River, Berlin once was the center of the pulp and paper-making industry, and had a population over 20,000 people. The Berlin Street Railway ceased operations in 1938.
