Andover is a rail station on the MBTA Commuter Rail system in Andover, Massachusetts. The station is located at 17 Railroad Street near the town center. Service to the station is provided by the Haverhill Line from Boston to Haverhill, Massachusetts both inbound and outbound. Some trains serving this station run on the Lowell Line from North Station to Wilmington and then switch over to the Haverhill Line via the Wildcat Branch.

Andover Station is located north of Essex Street; across from that grade crossing are two former Boston and Maine Railroad stations. One is a 1907-built stone structure located on 100 School Street(now Lupine Road),^[2] and the other is a former freight house that has been a lawn mower dealer and repair shop since 1972.^[3]
