former railroad express office, Concord MA
This used to be an express office (like a railroad post office for sending parcels by train) and baggage room for the Boston & Maine Railroad. It is now home to Bedford Farms Ice Cream, which has a sign saying "since 1880." Maybe that ice cream business has been around since 1880, but it wasn't in this building yet. This building wasn't even built until shortly after the turn of the century, and then it was used by the railroad for a while.
This building is immediately adjacent to the former passenger station.
