The Third Railroad Station is an historic railroad station at 100 School Street in Andover, Massachusetts. The Richardsonian structure was built by the Boston and Maine Railroad in 1906 (although some sources claim it was built in 1907),[2] and went into service in 1908. It was Andover's third station, and the second to be built on this site. It was taken out of service and sold in 1959.[3] The station is located along what is now the MBTA Commuter Rail Haverhill/Reading Line, and is in close proximity to Andover Station.

The station was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1982.[1]
