Andover's station was probably built in 1854 when the Sussex Railroad was built through the town. The station was closed in 1951 and the agent, Daniel Plant, was discontinued. The station was removed around 1959 to a lot on Rt. 517 in Andover and converted to a house. In the 1960's a small wood station replaced the earlier station.

Nearby Industries: Fulboam Creamery, Stock Yard, Ayers & Seeley Coal and Lumber company.
