The Sawyer River Station was located three miles north of Bartlett, New Hampshire at milepost 74.8 and was the terminus for the Sawyer River Logging Railroad's connections to the Maine Central Railroad. The Sawyer River Railroad was one of the early logging railroads to connect to the [then] Portland and Ogdenburg Railroad.

It was an eight mile long standard gauge railroad leading from the main line and snaking into the woods along the banks of the Sawyer River. Two miles up the line sat the sawmill village of Livermore. The original station on the Portland and Ogdenburg was named Livermore but was changed to Sawyer River on September 3, 1888.

The model is constructed after the station that appears to be the second, of three, that existed at this location. This station closed on October 17, 1921. The Sawyer River Railroad lasted until about 1937.

The entire station will be made up of two separate kits:
Kit 1005-A Passenger Station
Kit 1005-B Car House
