The stretch of track in Hampton Falls is only about a mile. The station was at the end of depot road.
New!! Gallery of pictures taken on 12-12-04 at high tide.
Looking from the end of Depot Rd, south towards Brimmer Road. Those
large blocks up on Brimmer Road were probably the former bridge abuttments.
The bridge was removed and replaced by fill.
From the end of Depot Rd, this view is looking north.
I have no idea why the iron was taken up and thrown aside, maybe to
allow power line crews easier access? This pile of rail is at the end of
Depot Road.
Looking north again. The southbound rail was to the left of this picture.
A little of it still remains.
Ties still in place, rail removed.
Ditto.
A little bit of iron left there.
The north bound iron has been long gone. The right of way is drivable
if you're careful.
There were a couple of washouts evident on my short drive up the right
of way.
End of the line as far as driving goes. Rail and guard rail for the
bridge remain.
Turned around and heading back.
Washout.
Another washout.
View across the marsh toward the Hampton / Seabrook route 1A bridge
in the distance.
A deeper washout here. That house is on Depot Rd.
Signal just south of the station. The same type of signal we saw at
Newburyport, Salisbury, and Seabrook. A bridge over some water is evident
as is the stone blocks on Brimmer Ln.
View from the end of Depot Rd looking south towards Brimmer Lane.

Still a noticably rise in the road.
