Back in the day......There used to be a bridge on these abutments. The line went over this bridge which went over the Merrimack River out of Nashua, through Hudson and Windham and eventually to Portsmouth. I believe the Portsmouth Branch from Rockingham Junction is what is left of the same line.

"The bridge piers you see in the Merrmiack River is actually the Nashua-Rochester line, which eventually went to Portland.

The Portsmouth & Concord was Manchester-Portsmouth via Rockingham."
Thank you Matt for the information.
