In 1851, a new post office was established in North Leominster giving itself the feel as a separate town. In 1845, when the railroad from Boston was extended to Fitchburg it ran through the North Village parallel to the river.

In 2005, the MBTA finished construction of a new commuter rail station at North Leominster on the Fitchburg Line from Boston. North Leominster is accessible from the Lancaster, MA line on MA Route 2 by taking the exit for Harvard Street, or from the exit for Massachusetts Route 13.
