The original station that served Londonderry was contained within a house that was situated near the station site. Later, a railroad station was constructed near the mill on Mammoth Road.
Chaos struck the center of town, as on the morning of July 7, 1921 fire ripped through the village. A grain elevator, grist and saw mills, general store with a community hall, and the railroad station burned to the ground. The Boston & Maine Railroad replaced the station with an old combination passenger car and boxcar on a temporary basis. This temporary station served the town for nine years before the station from Wilson was moved to Londonderry in 1930.
